Neste to supply SAF to Hotelplan Group

In Switzerland, Neste will supply sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to Hotelplan Group, a globally active Swiss travel group in the leisure and business travel sector, to enable Hotelplan to expand the use of SAF across the whole group. Hotelplan purchases unblended, i.e. “neat”, sustainable aviation fuel for a total value of 300,000 Swiss Francs (CHF) via Neste Impact, a solution that enables companies to credibly reduce the carbon footprint of air travel activities.
The purchase of Neste’s SAF is a next step in Hotelplan Group’s broader sustainability strategy, that includes promoting the use of SAF and the removal of CO2 from the atmosphere via innovative technologies such as direct air capture. Flights taken by Hotelplan Group’s customers are the main source of its greenhouse gas (CO2e) emissions, accounting for 87% of such emissions. The SAF purchase from Neste will help Hotelplan Group expand the availability of SAF to its customers as part of booking trips with flights to enable them to choose to travel more sustainably. Hotelplan Group also uses SAF for some of its own business trips.
