The UK’s Norwich Airport has joined the ranks of European airports to offer continuous supplies of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). Airport operator Regional & City Airports announced the deal with Air bp this week at EBACE in Geneva. The 35 percent SAF blend delivered is already being used by FBO operator and charter provider SaxonAir.

“SAF provides a significant reduction in carbon emissions over the course of its life cycle, which we will offer as part of our FBO service,” said SaxonAir CEO Alex Durand, adding he looks forward to other regional airports following Norwich’s lead. “As the UK’s longest-standing combined VIP jet and helicopter charter operator, we want to increase the SAF uptake across all our aircraft.”
