Aviation is our passion, yet we don't want to hide away from the negative sides it has. Flying is not environmentally friendly and climate damaging, especially when you fly as much as we do.
With this awareness we have adopted measures to reduce our climate impact:
Offsets 2023
In 2023 we've offset the emissions of the following flights so far. That's a total of about 6 tons. These emissions do not only include CO2 but also the carbon-dioxide equivalents of nitrous gases, ozones, soot, sulphates, water vapor and other particles caused by our flights. Emitting emissions at the general flight levels is up to 4.7-times more damaging than near the ground as the atmosphere at these altitudes is more vulnerable.
Offsets 2022
In 2022 we've offset the emissions of 30 flights. That's a total of 17.7 tons. These emissions do not only include CO2 but also nitrous gases, ozone, soot, sulphates, water vapor and other particles caused by our flights.
Offsets 2021
In 2021 we've offset a total of 7.2t of emissions. These emissions do not only include CO2 but also nitrius gages, ozone, soot, sulphates, water pavour and other particles caused by our flights.
*Applies only to flights within the European Union.
** Does not apply to special flights or events.
***Due to financial reasons, we offset the emissions not during the booking or immediately after the flight but successively over the year. However, each flight is offset by the time of the publication of the corresponding Trip Report.
