Croatia Airlines operates first flights with sustainable aviation fuel

CA used SAF with a SAF content of 30-40% on selected flights for the first time today.

The fuel was procured by INA through its suppliers. CA thus confirms its willingness to apply a legal obligation that requires suppliers in the EU to use at least 2% fuel from renewable sources from 2025 to contribute to the decarbonisation of air traffic.

Under the EU regulation, all aviation fuel suppliers are required to secure SAF supplies and airlines must use them within the EU.

CA notes that the use of this type of fuel reduces greenhouse gas emissions by 60-80 over the average life cycle of the fuel.
