Premiering SAF partnership on TUI flights
ECS Group contributes 1% SAF towards the incremental fuel burn associated with the cargo carried on all TUI flights, and forwarders can opt in to contribute 10% SAF for the transport of their shipments. The SAF cooperation between ECS Group and TUI began in August 2022. Since then, ECS Group has been financing a 1% SAF blend on all TUI flights.
“Air cargo accounts for around 0.4% of global CO2 emissions – equivalent to the emissions of the entire country of Germany. This figure is expected to increase as the air cargo industry continues to grow,” says Adrien Thominet, executive chairman of ECS Group. That is why, at ECS Group, we are contributing to a 1% SAF blend on all TUI flights in this first ever SAF partnership between a GSSA and an airline – and it will not be the last.” (cj)
