Protecting our planet
Challenging ourselves to do things better lies at the heart of everything we do. As an airline, we know we have a major role to play in protecting our planet and the communities we operate in while connecting people across the world. So we’re taking action, by investing in research, new technologies and innovation to reduce our impact in the air and on the ground.
Mission to net zero
We’ve set important interim targets on our mission to net zero, focussed on improving the efficiency of our fleet and increasing the use sustainable aviation fuels.
Waste and pollution
We're working with our partners to reduce, reuse and recycle wherever possible, and are determined to reduce the amount of single-use virgin plastic we use onboard our flights.
Sustainable supply chains
We’re focussed on treating our direct and indirect suppliers with respect and dignity, in a way that minimises damage to the environment and natural resources.
The story so far
We’ve already reached some key milestones on our sustainability flightpath. We know there’s still a long way to go. But we’re in it for the long haul.
