🎥 NEW VIDEO: The aviation industry has long justified airport expansions by citing regional economic growth… but something’s not adding up. A new documentary from T&E takes a close look at the true cost of Europe’s cheap flight boom. From London to Barcelona to Amsterdam, residents are challenging the "growth at all costs" narrative. While airlines post record profits, locals are left footing the bill for overtourism, housing crises, and environmental degradation. The worst part? Claims that airport expansion is a guaranteed boon for the economy seem to be widely overstated. So what is all this even for? Watch the full documentary to explore the real economics of airport expansion and how cities are fighting back ➡️ https://lnkd.in/e3QyCB3c This video was recorded at a time when the narrator was employed by T&E as an aviation expert. She has since left T&E for a new role. The views expressed in the narration are those of T&E and of no other company or organisation. #overtourism #airportexpansion New Economics Foundation Winnie de Wit Alex Chapman Travel Smart Campaign Erin Vera Olivares
