While air travel has become an integral part of leisure, business and academic research, the COVID-19 pandemic has drastically changed this situation. Travel restrictions to limit the risk of infection have brought global air travel to a standstill, with trips being canceled, postponed, carried out by other means of transport or replaced by digital solutions.
TRANSFLIGHT is dedicated to the following questions:
- What factors influence air travel behavior in the private, corporate and scientific sectors?
- Where does the carbon lock-in in this area come from and what solutions are there?
- How will emissions from air travel develop in the future?
- How can our findings lead to strategies and policy measures that are effective, fair and feasible?
- What are the views of air travelers and what do stakeholders think?
- What experiences/challenges/opportunities has the COVID-19 pandemic brought with it in terms of the reorganization of long-distance travel behavior?
- What role can digitalization and virtual mobility play as an alternative to physical travel, and what other options for action may exist?
These questions are addressed through quantitative and qualitative research with a focus on the Austrian population, companies and universities.
We will present interim results, exciting findings and important facts here on this website and on our Twitter channel.
