Eurowings is the first airline to introduce in-flight purchasing option for sustainable aviation fue
Sustainable
enjoyment can be taken literally on board Eurowings flights going forward – in
two ways: by purchasing the new organic fruit smoothie ‘SAFt’ in the Wings
Bistro, passengers can offset the flight-related CO₂ emissions of an average
Eurowings route length for 19.50 euros as of now. The compensation is made up
of two components: sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) reduces 10 percent of
flight-related CO₂ emissions. The remaining 90 percent of flight-related CO₂
emissions are offset by contributing to a high-quality climate project
portfolio with the partners myclimate, Climate Partner and SQUAKE.
SAFt,
a play on words involving the German word for ‚juice‘, aims to inform guests
about SAF during the flight and offer the sustainable aviation fuel for
purchase. Eurowings travelers can thus make a spontaneous and uncomplicated
contribution to more sustainable flying. SAF is produced from biogenic waste
from renewable sources, such as used cooking oils, and has a carbon footprint
that is around 80 percent lower than that of fossil kerosene over its entire
life cycle. As a drop-in fuel, SAF is compatible with fossil kerosene and is
blended with it before being transported to the airport and then fed into the
airport infrastructure. There is no refueling of individual flights with pure
SAF.
The
smoothie is also all about sustainability: the organic smoothie from
kraftschluck is produced in Germany and has no added sugar. Kraftschluck is a
young start-up from Nuremberg that guarantees that 99.9% of its fruit comes
from German organic farms with short transport routes. The offer of CO₂
compensation that can be booked online in advance (Planet Blu) remains in
place. This can be booked in advance for all Eurowings guests via the
website www.eurowings.com.
