Loganair has pledged to go carbon neutral by 2040 with the ‘GreenSkies’ environmental programme.
The GreenSkies initiative comprises carbon offsets to remove the same amount of carbon from the environment that is generated from each and every Loganair flight.
The airline says it will become the first UK regional airline to make such a commitment to mitigate its environmental impact of flying.
The new carbon offset programme will launch from July 1.
A £1 carbon offset charge will be included in the ticket price for every customer’s flight from summer 2021.
Loganair Chief Executive Jonathan Hinkles said: “We are proud to be the first UK regional airline to set ambitious goals for a carbon-neutral future. The entire transport industry has a huge task ahead to address and reduce emissions from every form of travel.”
