Layovers imply extra take-offs and landings and these are the moments of a flight that emit more carbon dioxide. Also, flying in newer aircrafts means the engines are newer and generally more fuel efficient than older models. Another way you can reduce your carbon footprint is by bringing with you a reusable water bottle and avoiding plastic waste that the bottles onboard entail. The lighter you pack the better as well. Try to avoid pushing the weight limit with your luggage since the more the aircrafts weighs, the more fuel it’ll need to make the journey, releasing more carbon dioxide in the meantime.
