Virgin Atlantic is increasing its use of sustainable aviation fuels to help reach its net zero carbon emissions target.

  • How can I fly more sustainably from London to Delhi?

    There are several ways in which you can make your flight from London to Delhi more eco-friendly. Opt for an economy seat rather than a business seat as this has a far better fuel efficiency rating per person due to there being more people in the economy cabin. The extra services and amenities in Business Class cabins, such as reclining chairs, also use up a lot more energy than those in Economy Class cabins. It’s also better to fly in the day, rather than night, due to the impact of condensation trails. These form during every flight but at night they create a thicker thermal layer and therefore warm the atmosphere more. You should also look to fly direct, rather than indirect, as this means less fuel is required for the journey. Also, due to the fact you’ll only take-off and land once which is when the highest fuel consumption is, you'll use less energy to get to your destination.
