Both Emirates and British Airways have dedicated sustainable travel programs in place which involve retiring older models in favour of modern, more fuel-efficient planes. Look for these models when you book your flight – it will be displayed on the ticket reservation schedule, and choose to fly on a 787 or an A320 if possible. Air India has also been a leader in the field of eco-friendly travel, having already won an award from the World Sustainability Forum for its outstanding contribution to reducing carbon emissions. They achieve this by paying close attention to aircraft maintenance and performance, eliminating uneconomical systems and reducing unnecessary weight.

  • How to fly more sustainably from London to Mumbai?

    You can do your bit for the environment when flying – don’t think that your contribution is too small to be significant: saving the environment requires a combination of all our efforts, regardless of how big or small. A simple thing like taking your water in a gym bottle and refusing bottled water can have a big cumulative effort on the amount of plastic waste, especially if we all do it. You should also pack as lightly as you can to avoid adding unnecessary weight to the aircraft. It’s also more environmentally-friendly to fly during the day as heat emissions are trapped within the atmosphere more easily at night, including contrails storing more of it than they do during the day. Lastly, remember that any extra luxuries you get on board, like vanity kits and additional snacks, increase the carbon footprint of the flight so by flying Economy Class you won’t be using up any of these additional items personally.
