CO2-neutral by 2050: an ambitious goal for the Lufthansa Group, but one that’s worth every effort to achieve.
Our aim is to reduce the emissions of our flights as much as possible. We shall halve our net carbon emissions by 2030 compared to 2019. The carbon reduction in this interim target has been validated by the Science Based Target Initiative (SBTi) and is in line with the Paris Climate Agreement.
In our efforts to reduce our flight-related emissions, we are investing in a modern and more sustainable fleet, implementing new technologies, promoting efficient operations and increasing the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). As pioneers in the aviation industry, we strive for innovative solutions and efficient measures to achieve a carbon-neutral aviation industry.
Green Fares on SWISS domestic flights
On its domestic flights between Zurich and Geneva, SWISS only offers fares that include the offsetting of CO2 emissions in the ticket price. This is achieved by combining a 20% reduction through the use sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) with an 80% contribution to high-quality climate protection projects.
Passengers travelling on this route can also opt for a Green Fare with an even higher share of SAF: 50% of the individual flight-related C02 emissions will be reduced by using sustainable aviation fuels and the remaining 50% will be offset through climate protection projects.
The adjusted fares can only be booked for flights between Geneva and Zurich and do not apply to feeder or connecting flights.
