Condor
is offering various packages on all flights with which customers can support
the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and selected climate protection
projects. Initially, they support three specific projects that Condor has
selected together with the non-profit climate protection organization
myclimate. The amount of the voluntary climate contribution can be determined
during the booking process or afterwards up until departure.
From
now on, Condor guests will also receive information on how much CO2 is produced
on average for the seat they have booked. There is a total of eight climate
packages to choose from. The first climate package of 50 kg CO2 can also be
booked by existing customers for EUR 19.99. Those who would like to take into
account the journey to the airport as well as the flight can also purchase
climate contributions for larger amounts of CO2 than those incurred for their
own Condor flight via Condor.
Peter
Gerber, CEO at Condor: “A sense of responsibility and sustainability are an
essential part of our corporate culture. We are aware that the ecological
impact of our actions must be considered to ensure long-term business success -
both at our company location in Germany and in the numerous destinations we fly
to.”
The
three selected projects will be implemented in Europe, Africa and the
Caribbean. Specifically, this involves a support program for the expansion of
agroforests in German-speaking countries, low-emission stoves in rural regions
of Kenya and a solar power plant in the Dominican Republic.
In
addition to the introduction of the climate contribution, Condor supports the
aviation industry's goal of being CO2-neutral by 2050 through CO2 reduction and
compensation. Fleet renewal is also making a significant contribution to this.
Since March 2024, only factory-new A330neo aircraft have been used on Condor's
long-haul routes. Since then, the modernization course on short and medium-haul
routes has continued with 43 A32Xneo orders. Once the modernization is complete, Condor
will have the youngest fleet in Europe. As part of the InnoFuels project, the airline
is also committed to making the use of regenerative fuels more tangible, thus
laying another important foundation stone for the use of low-emission fuels.
Condor is also actively involved in the “100 Flights Trail” of the Climate Neutral Aviation
Working Group, which tests whether non-CO2 effects such as contrails can be
avoided by flying around climate-sensitive areas.com
