    Master Thesis

    Master Thesis Sustainability reporting in the airline industry: a comparative case study analysis of four selected European passenger airlines and their countries of registration on the basis of the airlines’ annual reports and sustainability report from 2018 Student: Laura Vani Kesore (s2015323) [email protected] Study program: Public Administration M.Sc. First Supervisor: Prof. Dr. René Torenvlied [email protected] Second Supervisor: Dr. Ringo Ossewaarde [email protected] Master Thesis 24 August 2020 University of Twente, Faculty of Behavioural, Management and Social Sciences Drienerlolaan 5 7522 NB Enschede, NL Abstract Sustainability reporting for airlines is becoming more and more important. The driving forces are the external and internal pressures, such as demand from the public and society, from governments, stakeholders and shareholders, as well as from NGOs, activists, and the industry- intern economic competition between the airlines. Within the scope of this research, the main focus was on the research question: How can the variation in the claims of sustainable measures reported in the 2018 annual reports and sustainability reports by four different European airlines be explained from the characteristics of the airlines and of the countries in which the airlines are registered?. The ecosystem for the conducted analyses consists of four airlines from four different countries in the European Union. Seven sustainability parameters were chosen in order to objectively analyze the sustainability reporting of the airlines and of their countries of registrations. The parameters are: (I) alternative fuel, (II) CORSIA, (III) aviation tax, (IV) aircraft age, (V) aircraft design, (VI) Dow Jones Sustainability Index, and (VII) atmosfair Airline Index.

In close cooperation with Lufthansa, Boeing has developed an aircraft that is optimized not only in terms of com- fort but also in all dimensions of climate and environmental responsibility. The fully redesigned wings, extensive use of weight-reducing materials and innova- tive engine technology ensure that this aircraft’s eco-effi ciency has again been improved signifi cantly in comparison with its predecessor: greater fuel effi - ciency, lower emissions and signifi cant noise reductions (also see page 27). The “Queen of the Skies,” as many Jumbo enthusiasts call the “Dash Eight,” offers an exceptional travel experience in all classes of service, especially in the exclusive First Class and the entirely new Business Class. In this way, environmental effi ciency and the highest levels of travel comfort are brought into harmony. Lufthansa has ordered 20 aircraft of this type.

  • An Open Letter to the Prime Minister of Canada and All Premiers

    An Open Letter to the Prime Minister of Canada and all Premiers As a society, we have faced a threat like no other, COVID-19. And we are still dealing with it. Under the leadership of our governments, we agreed to implement tough decisions to protect our health and safety. We shut down our schools, our businesses, and our borders. We all made sacrifices and continue to adapt to this new reality. Now, it seems, we are getting through the worst of it. As we re-open, we are learning to live with the virus, not hide from it or from each other. And, just like we are re-opening the front doors of our homes and businesses, we need to re-open the doors of our provinces, territories – and our country. The Canadian travel, tourism and hospitality sector employs 1.8 million people and contributes $102 billion to our economy. It relies on the summer season to survive. As Canadians, we wait all year to travel during the summer. We need the summer. Like you, we believe personal safety is critical. However, many of the travel restrictions currently in place are simply too broad or unnecessary. Limitations on inter-provincial travel that restrict Canadians from freely exploring our country, should be removed. Canadians should be free to travel across Canada. We also need a more targeted approach to international travel. The mandatory 14-day quarantine and complete closure of our country to all visitors from abroad is no longer necessary and is out of step with other countries across the globe.
