For example, they are reducing the amount of waste by having passengers choose their meals in advance, and they are working to reduce the use of non-recycled plastic products by 90% from now on. The company has been actively working to reduce CO2 emissions for the past 15 years, and the project includes both direct efforts through flights and indirect efforts through corporate activities. As for the direct part of the project, the introduction of the latest aircraft will have a great impact, so we will continue to introduce Boeing 787s and Airbus A350s, and by 2028, we plan to replace 64% of our fleet.

KLM is also making efforts to introduce sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), which is attracting attention as a solution to environmental problems, and is supporting companies that develop and manufacture SAF. KLM has successfully tested an engine using 100% SAF. The group is aiming to increase the SAF blending rate to 10% by 2030, and has concluded supply contracts with Neste (Finland) and DG Fuels (U.S.A.) to secure up to 3% of the SAF blend. emissions by 80%,” he said, also explaining that the introduction of SAF is an urgent issue.
