Carbon-neutral flying
Let’s make a difference. Let’s support climate protection together. Simply book your contribution with your next trip.
Make your flight carbon neutral while you’re making the booking
Make your trip more sustainable from the moment you book and either offset the carbon emissions of your flight or reduce them in an innovative way.
Depending on how much you want to contribute and how quickly you want the measures to take effect, choose one of our three options:
offset the carbon emissions of your flight by contributing to high-quality climate protection projects, using sustainable aviation fuels, or a combination of both. This gives you the opportunity to personally make your trip carbon neutral.
Three options, one goal: climate protection
Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) is not produced from fossil-based raw materials, but from used cooking oils & fats or from agricultural waste. In comparison to conventional kerosene, SAF saves approximately 80% of carbon emissions. We use the quantity of SAF required to achieve full carbon reduction.
The Lufthansa Group promotes climate protection projects worldwide in collaboration with myclimate. Examples include the restoration of peatlands in Germany, the construction of biogas plants in Brazil, energy-saving cookers for people in Kenya, Peru and Burundi, or the protection of endangered forests in Tanzania. In this way, you not only contribute to climate protection, but also to more biodiversity and improved living conditions for local people. Compared to SAF, the focus here is more on offsetting carbon than on avoiding its emission.
With this option, you ensure that one part of your contribution goes towards climate protection projects and the other towards the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). This is how to choose an efficient combination for carbon neutral travel.
