Oneworld Alliance Joins IATA’s CO2 Emission Calculation Efforts
Oneworld Alliance becomes the first airline alliance to collaborate with the International Air Transport Association (IATA) in calculating aviation industry CO2 emissions. All 13 member airlines of Oneworld will contribute operational data to IATA’s CO2 Connect calculator, increasing the accuracy of per-flight passenger CO2 emission calculations.
This initiative aligns with the growing traveler demand for informed choices regarding carbon footprints, emphasizing transparency and environmental responsibility in the aviation sector. IATA’s CO2 Connect, launched in June 2022, aims to provide high-quality emission calculations based on operational data, with data contributions from Oneworld’s partner airlines enhancing its coverage and accuracy.
