In September, Swedavia presented a report stating that after the corona pandemic, it is no longer profitable to operate Bromma Airport.
The report worries Roger Fredriksson, who despite the crisis in the aviation industry, wants to invest in domestic aviation.
At the beginning of the year, the municipality updated its travel policy so that employees will choose to fly to a greater extent - by paying extra for biofuel surcharges on each flight ticket.
For a region like Blekinge, domestic aviation is crucial as other communications are too bad, says Roger Fredriksson.
- I think we will come back in a few years.
Because there are no real alternatives for traders and others to operate from here otherwise, he says.
Reduced travel before the pandemic
Even before the corona pandemic, domestic travel decreased.
Between 2017 and 2019, the number of passengers decreased by almost one million.
And now, after the pandemic, it is clear that several airports around the country are in danger of going bankrupt as passenger numbers have plummeted.
- If it is the case that airports are close to other airports or close to good railways, then you have to think about.
Some airports will probably have to be closed in the future, says Lorentz Tovatt, the Green Party's climate policy spokesperson.
Minister of Infrastructure Tomas Eneroth (S), however, does not want to give any information about Bromma's future.
- We are in the middle of a pandemic where all flights are down.
Then you have to take the time to see what volume we will have in the future on the flight.
The important thing from a transport policy point of view is that we have good connections in the country.
I do not think it is completely decisive for some whether it is Bromma or Arlanda you land on, but the important thing is that domestic flights can work well and that must be the starting point, says Tomas Eneroth to SVT's Agenda.
