Scandinavian Airlines stops duty free sales to cut emissions

Explore Business Standard

Scandinavian Airlines says it will stop selling duty-free goods on its flights to reduce the weight of its aircraft and save fuel and ultimately reduce carbon emissions, saying "every step on the way to sustainable travel is important."
Spokesperson Freja Annamatz said Tuesday the airline "is aiming to cut emissions by at least 25per cent by 2030."
Annamatz said Tuesday that "passengers' buying behaviour has changed with fewer inflight sales and sustainability has become more important than ever before."
