In Finland, Neste said that Mexican low-cost carrier Viva Aerobus signed a new purchase agreement for one million liters of Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel. The sustainable aviation fuel supplied to Viva Aerobus will be blended with conventional jet fuel and used to power the airline’s flights from Los Angeles International Airport to Guadalajara, Mexico City and Monterrey in Mexico. “We embrace the goal to reduce our carbon footprint, a goal which requires an extensive commitment. We are proud to increase the use of SAF, partnering with Neste, and we will also continue to take further steps in adhering to best practices in sustainability such as optimizing our fuel efficiency,” said Juan Carlos Zuazua, CEO of Viva Aerobus. Neste noted that SAF-powered flights will start to take off in the second half of 2023 with each flight using a fuel blend with about 35% of Neste MY SAF.
