Trip.com and Etihad offer free carbon offsetting
Global OTA Trip.com and Etihad have launched a month-long ‘Travel with a Smaller Footprint’ campaign allowing Trip.com to offset their Etihad flight for free.
Until 22 May, the campaign offers Trip.com users booking Etihad flights with the ‘carbon-offset’ tag to get their flight’s carbon emissions offset.
The campaign has gone live in Singapore, the UK, Germany, France, Spain, Italy and Ireland
It will follow with successive launches in APAC markets, including Malaysia, South Korea, Japan, Thailand and Australia.
Hundreds of Etihad flights will be listed on Trip.com sites with the ‘carbon-offset’ tag.
Trip.com users whose flights are included in this campaign will see their offset investment made in two key projects – the Katingan Petland Restoration and Conservation Project in Kalimantan Province, Indonesia, and the Cordillera Azul National Park REDD+ Project in central Peru.
Both of these projects are focused on environmental protection and habitat restoration.
“Our Corporate Conscious Choices programme has been designed to facilitate and enable our corporate partners and guests to easily make sustainable choices when they fly,” said Martin Drew, SVP of Global Sales and Cargo, Etihad Airways. “
