FlySafair, which operates a large proportion of flights to Cape Town from Bloemfontein, places a strong emphasis on fuel saving as a major way of providing sustainable travel. They make direct flights rather than stopping en route, which saves a lot fuel, as cruising at high altitude burns significantly less fuel than adding an extra landing and take-off cycle. LINK Airways is the other airline operating direct flights. It offers a single trip a day, to ensure that flights are full, which makes the airline more economical and fuel efficient by operating fewer flights. Of course this also vastly decreases its overall carbon footprint.

One of the most important eco-friendly things you can do to reduce not only your own carbon footprint when flying, but the overall impact of the airline industry, is to refuse all items made from plastic. Don’t buy small bottles of water, for instance, as these are having a devastating impact on the environment at the moment. Rather take your own reusable water bottle with you. If you’re flying during meal times, you can also ask not to be served food, for the same reason – the flight is only about 1h 30min, so consider eating beforehand, or enjoy a meal at your destination. Also resist the urge to take one-stop flights between these cities, no matter the cost-saving, as you’ll be flying via Johannesburg, which is a detour in the opposite direction, to the north, requiring an even longer flight south to Cape Town.
