By the end of the decade, Wizz Air plans to operate 10 percent of its flights with sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). The new objective is a significant step in the company’s environmental protection strategy.

Wizz Air announced its 2030 commitment together with its partner, the British company Firefly, in a press conference.

In order to support research and development related to sustainable aviation fuel, last year, for the first time in its history, the airline invested 5 million pounds – i.e. more than HUF 2.1 billion – in the biofuel production company.

The efforts support Wizz Air’s commitment to further reduce carbon dioxide emissions per passenger kilometer by 25 percent by 2030.
