SAS now offers a ‘Travel Pass Biofuel’ punch card for corporate customers who regularly travel to the same destination and want fossil-free fuel for their flights included. The program provides a discounted prepaid travel pass punch card which includes 100 percent biofuel.
On Friday (March 18, 2022), SAS announced the launch of ‘Travel Pass Biofuel’, a punch card for corporate customers who regularly travel to the same destination. The program provides customers with a prepaid punch card where 100 percent biofuel is always included, so travelers can help offset the environmental impact of their flights. SAS strives to be a leader in sustainable aviation by operating modern fuel efficient aircraft and by using sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), as a bridge to achieving net-zero emission aviation. The biofuel contributed by SAS customers is added to the supply already being purchased by the carrier.
In Friday’s announcment, SAS’ Vice President – Global Sales, Markus Ek, said,
“SAS has ambitious sustainability targets and is committed to increase the use of sustainable aviation fuels, such as biofuel, in our operations in order to lower the climate impact from traveling by air. We now welcome our customers on board the journey toward a more sustainable aviation by making it possible to buy Travel Pass Biofuel. This is perfect for customers who want to make their flying more sustainable.”
SAS is the leading airline in Scandinavia, normally carrying over 30 million passengers annually from its main hubs in Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm to 125 destinations in Europe, the US and Asia (pre-pandemic figures). The company has targeted a reduction in carbon emissions by 25 percent by 2025, compared to 2005 levels, and hopes to transition to 100% biofuel for domestic flights by 2030. SAS also offers ground handling services, technical maintenance and cargo services. The carrier is a founding member of the Star Alliance, which offers an extensive global network.
