  • How can I fly more sustainably from London to New York?

    If you are passionate about sustainable travel, then you should choose a direct flight rather than an indirect one, as these use less fuel due to the route being shorter. You will also only be taking-off and landing once, which is the period of the flight when fuel consumption is at its highest. Flying during the day rather than at night is also more beneficial for the environment. This is because condensation trails, which are produced during the flight, are less harmful to the atmosphere during daytime flights then those at night. Whilst you can also choose an airline that has a modern fleet, such as British Airways, to make your journey more environmentally friendly. This is due to the technology being more efficient which, as a result, produces fewer emissions.
