Most Norwegians—and visitors to Norway—rarely think about Avinor, yet they use almost all our services during their air travel. Thanks to these revenues, we can sustain a large network of even less profitable airports through tax-free sales, parking, and airspace user fees. We call this the Avinor model—and it enables people living in remote areas to enjoy short distances to jobs, hospitals, education, and more, thanks to financing from larger airports. Avinor is a key player in making aviation greener and more sustainable in the long term. We work closely with environmental organizations and are central to developing sustainable aviation fuel and electric aircraft. This is critical to our survival—and an exceptionally exciting field involving innovation and collaboration with many interesting partners. We also pursue targeted initiatives toward fossil-free self-operation. For Avinor to continue delivering world-class services and products, everyone must contribute to their development. Therefore, it goes without saying that all types of employees are welcome—regardless of background, orientation, ethnicity, religion, functional ability, or age. Everyone should feel welcome here!
