Commitment to Sustainability<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Sustainability is one of the fundamental <\/span>values<\/span> at ITA Airways. It is pursued through concrete actions aiming to achieve a reduced environmental impact. An ambitious fleet renewal plan has been envisaged to encompass <\/span>9<\/span><\/strong>0%<\/span><\/strong> of new generation <\/span>aircraft<\/span> by 2026: more modern, efficient, comfortable <\/span>aircraft<\/span> with CO2 emissions reduced by 25% <\/span><\/strong>compared to the <\/span>previous<\/span> generation of <\/span>aircraft<\/span>.<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, the availability of fuels that come from more sustainable sources such as SAF (Sustainable Aviation Fuel) will help guide the transition of air transport from traditional fossil fuels to those of a biogenic nature. SAF, which is currently used on special flights, will gradually be used on the entire fleet.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In an agreement with CHOOOSE, a Norwegian company leader in climate technologies \u2013 ITA Airways can offer the opportunity to participate in offsetting the CO\u2082 emissions of a passenger\u2019s flight, contributing to the implementation of certified projects that promote the natural and social environment and helping with the supply of SAF, fuel with reduced CO\u2082 emissions.<\/span><\/p>\n
