In honor of Earth Day this Saturday, Caribbean charter provider Bohlke International Aviation has launched a new voluntary carbon-offset program for its customers. All this week, the St. Croix-based operator—which also runs the lone FBO at the island’s Henry E. Rohlsen Airport (TISX)—is offsetting 100 percent of the fuel used by its air charter division, a fleet that includes aircraft ranging from the Cessna Grand Caravan up to Dassault Falcon 900EX.

Starting on April 23, Bohlke’s charter customers can choose to voluntarily purchase carbon credits to offset their flights via a small fee applied to each gallon of jet fuel used. The company will subsidize half that extra cost to demonstrate its commitment to sustainability.
