Virgin Atlantic jet lands after maiden transatlantic flight on low-carbon fuel
Wednesday, 29 November 2023 Virgin Atlantic completes London-to-New York flight using 100% sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), showcasing low-carbon options and emissions reduction. The high cost and tight supply of waste materials needed for SAF production make large-scale production difficult. SAF currently accounts for less than 0.1% of global jet fuel usage. The flight, operated by a Virgin Boeing 787, is the first commercial airliner to fly long haul on 100% SAF. The aviation industry is working towards decarbonization through SAF, but challenges remain.
Join us as we witness aviation history unfold! Virgin Atlantic's jet has just completed its maiden transatlantic journey fueled by low-carbon innovation. Explore the groundbreaking eco-friendly technology behind this achievement and the implications for the future of air travel.
