Charter operator Tradewind Aviation has launched a new carbon offset program that will automatically cover all of its flights throughout North America and the Caribbean. The move expands on the company’s initial offset initiative in 2020 that allowed customers to voluntarily offset carbon emissions from their flights. That contribution was calculated at $7 per flight hour. As of the end of 2021, participants in the program had offset 160.3 tonnes of CO2.
