Aug 05, 2020 (newstodate): Copenhagen Airport is contemplating cutting 650 full-time positions from the company's current approximate total of 2,600.
   Already, almost 2,200 employees have been temporarily furloughed and called back to work in rotation, which has helped the airport retain its employees' skills and their affiliation with the airport, but it has now become clear, however, that the aviation industry will face a long-term crisis because of the coronavirus, whereas the wage compensation scheme will soon be phased out.
   Over the coming weeks, discussions will be held with the airport's union representatives to determine the expected redundancies.

Just over five million passengers passed through the terminals at Copenhagen Airport in the first six months of 2020, including 4.8 million in the first three months alone.

   As the coronavirus pandemic gradually brought global aviation to a standstill, Copenhagen Airports A/S (CPH) saw passenger traffic plunge to a historical low level, especially in the second quarter.

   The overall passenger flow in the first six months of 2020 was 65.2% lower than in the same period of 2019, where the passenger numbers was 14.4 million.
