Customers who book private jet or group charter flights can now contribute towards Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) research as part of the new agreement.
This follows the air charterer’s move to offset all emissions from passenger charter flights on Earth Day.
4AIR calculated the emissions footprint of Chapman Freeborn’s flights, 133mtCO2, and credits were bought to support new renewable energy projects to offset it.
“Aviation is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonise, but rather than simply accept this hard truth, we must lead by example,” said Lee Fletcher, Group Quality, Environment and Sustainability Manager.
“Having worked with 4AIR for a number of years, I am confident that our new strategic partnership with 4AIR puts the Group on a more sustainable footing and meets demand from our exacting clients for lower impact travel options.
“Passengers can now choose to offset their flights’ emissions through industry-leading, accredited schemes and contribute to building a more sustainable future for aviation.”
To oversee the Group’s environmental initiatives, reporting, and compliance, Lee Fletcher, Chapman Freeborn’s sustainability lead, has been promoted to Group Quality, Environment and Sustainability Manager.
