With a population of only 5.4 million, somewhat surprisingly Norway generates aviation emissions equivalent to a country ten times that size, according to Elfly CEO Eric Lithun. The reason, he argues, is geography. For example, to drive from Svolvær in the Lofoten Islands to Bodø, the nearest large town, is 138 or 210 miles depending on the route, it takes five or six hours and involves a ferry. In contrast, Widerøe schedules its de Havilland Canada Dash 8 aircraft to take just 25 minutes to cover the 68-mile great circle distance between the two airports.
