The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has enhanced its CO2 Connect tool by incorporating the IATA Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Accounting and Reporting Methodology. This development aims to provide greater transparency and accuracy for both corporations and individual travelers assessing the sustainability of their air travel.

“Corporations and individual travelers want to clearly understand how sustainable their flying is. And, particularly if they have invested in SAF, they want to know what impact it is having. By enhancing CO2 Connect with the IATA SAF Accounting and Reporting Methodology we are providing the transparency and accuracy that individuals and corporates demand,” said Frederic Leger, IATA’s Senior Vice President Commercial Products and Services.

IATA CO2 Connect utilizes real operational data, including aircraft type- specific fuel consumption contributed directly by airlines. This approach sets it apart from other calculators that rely on modeled averages. With the recent addition of carriers such as Air India, Air Astana, Air Europa, Amelia, Clic Air, Corsair, Hi Fly, Oman Air, Plus Ultra Líneas Aéreas, and Royal Air Maroc, approximately 60 airlines now contribute data to CO2 Connect.

“With the strong support of all our participating airlines and the new ability to accurately account for SAF in the calculation, IATA CO2 Connect is going from strength to strength. It is a powerful tool to support aviation’s decarbonization powered by global standard methodologies and high-quality data,” Leger added.
