Tiivistelmä
The aim of this study is to examine the public opinion towards aviation in the Nordic countries, focusing on the environmental issues of flying and the gender balance in jobs in the aviation industry, before the COVID-19 outbreak.
The aviation industry has grown rapidly in the last decade, and the growth is estimated to continue for at least another decade. With the growing number of flights and passengers, the environmentally harmful emissions of the aviation industry have also grown, albeit at a slower pace. The aviation industry is also stuck on very traditional gender roles which slow down the gender equality in the industry.
The data for this study has been collected using an online survey conducted over several months, several interviews for people both in the industry and outsiders and a collection of literary sources.
