How will it work?

The scheme is designed to provide emissions values to European passengers when booking their flights. In this way it enables passengers to identify flights with lower emissions, considering also that sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) are taken into account in the values shown. It is anticipated that passengers will be seamlessly provided with emission values during the flight booking process. In this way, transparency in terms of the environmental impacts of aviation will be achieved which in turn incentivises cross sector improvements in operations including fuel and technology. 

Workflow how to produce labels

The system has been designed and developed with the involvement of relevant industry stakeholders and is currently being tested with a selected number of European airlines and global online travel platforms.
