They also reduce waste from their flights by recycling things such as cardboard, plastics, and cooking oil. Another good choice for an airline on this route is Malaysia Airlines. In the spring of 2021, they launched their sustainability blueprint that creates a goal for the airline to be carbon neutral by the year 2050.

  • How can I fly more sustainably from South Africa to Australia?

    Once you have found an eco-friendly airline to make the trip to Australia from South Africa think about booking a ticket in economy class rather than business class or first class. Because there are more passengers per given area in an aircraft in economy class this is a more fuel-efficient manner of flying. On long trips such as this, it can be difficult to book direct flights but if you can find a direct flight or make as few layovers as possible you will be making an incredibly positive impact on the environment. When you are getting ready for your trip try to pack as little as possible since bringing less weight on the plane means less fuel burned on your flight and fewer emissions that are being put into the environment.
