In Hong Kong, Cathay Pacific reported that DB Schenker has joined Cathay’s Corporate Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) Program, adding that DB Schenker has become the biggest contributor to the scheme to date. The Corporate SAF Program was established in 2022 to help tackle climate change. It enables members to purchase SAF for uplift on Cathay Pacific and Cathay Cargo flights, from Hong Kong and other ports on the network. By joining and committing to buy 878 tons of SAF, DB Schenker has further demonstrated its commitment to reducing the climate impact of its air cargo activities, the Asian airline said. The SAF used for the arrangement with DB Schenker is derived from waste cooking oil and animal fats, the airline added. The Cathay Group also recently signed a memorandum of understanding with Singapore Airlines to collaborate on a variety of initiatives to promote the development and take-up of SAF in the Asia Pacific region.
