Leveraging Neste’s SAF supply capabilities at major international airports, Neste has been delivering blended SAF for use on Cathay Pacific flights from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol in Europe and Los Angeles International Airport in the US. Neste has also provided SAF to Singapore Changi Airport in the Asia-Pacific region for flights operated by Air Hong Kong, an all-cargo airline owned by the Cathay Group. The SAF is supplied into the fuel facilities of these airports blended with conventional jet fuel.
“Partnering with Neste marks a significant step toward our shared vision of decarbonising air travel. This collaboration is among our multifaceted strategy in accelerating the adoption of SAF within our extensive network, which reinforces our commitment to innovation and sustainability, ensuring we deliver meaningful impact for our customers and the air transport industry. SAF continues to play an important role in our decarbonisation journey as the most viable solution today for addressing emissions associated with flying,” said Kristof Van Passel, Head of Procurement Operations & Sustainability, Cathay Pacific.
“Neste is proud to support Cathay Group in its journey to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by supplying Neste MY SAF. Our global SAF production and supply capabilities offer international airlines, such as Cathay, a viable option to scale up usage of SAF, which is a key lever to reduce aviation related emissions. At the same time it enables Cathay’s customers to reduce the GHG emissions of their air travel and transport activities,” said Mario Mifsud, Vice President Renewable Fuels Sales & Trading EMEA & APAC at Neste.
