Turkish low-cost carrier Pegasus Airlines has signed an agreement with Norway-based climate tech company CHOOOSE. When travellers book a flight with Pegasus Airlines, they can visit an area of the site where they can estimate the carbon impact of their flights and help address their travel emissions by paying for an offset.

In a statement affirming their unwavering support for aviation’s sustainability goals, Güliz Öztürk, CEO at Pegasus Airlines, said: “On climate action, we have committed to reach net zero carbon emissions by 2050. We have strengthened our commitment further through our emissions intensity target, aiming to reduce carbon emissions per revenue passenger kilometres by 20% by 2030, compared to 2019 levels. Our targets will require significant abatement actions in our operations and the infrastructure we use”.

The new platform allows travellers to estimate their greenhouse gas emissions  and gives passengers and corporate travel managers the option to voluntarily address the carbon emissions associated with their flights by contributing to projects that advance climate action around the world (including supporting SAF). The climate program will expand to include a booking flow integration.
