Jet Zero Council will help industry reach its commitments

Friday 12 June 2020

Responding to the Government’s announcement of a Jet Zero Council, AOA Chief Executive Karen Dee said:

“The creation of this advisory body will help to ensure Government and Industry work in partnership to make net zero carbon emissions for the aviation industry a reality.

“Funding for sustainable aviation fuels will help to pump-prime an entirely new industry, generating new jobs and economic growth, while reducing emissions from international aviation.

“UK airports are doing all they can to reduce the carbon emissions from the operation on the ground, the announcement today will help industry meet its commitments in the sky as well.”
