Be part of the solution and contribute CO2 emissions for consistent and accurate CO2 calculations across the travel value chain. 

Airline issues we are addressing:

  • Inconsistency in emissions data across the travel value chain.
  • Inaccurate calculations of carbon footprint of air travel.
  • Protecting confidentiality and ownership of sensitive airline performance data.
  • Advocating against policies that exacerbate proliferation of CO2 data and/or increase the airlines’ administrative burden.
  • Promoting adoption of industry-developed and -approved calculations.

Why airlines support IATA CO2 Connect?

  • Substituting generic industry data with values reflecting airline’s own performance.
  • Applying existing CORSIA processes and procedures.
  • Calculating passenger carbon footprint using RP1726, the industry-approved methodology.
  • Possibility to obtain CO2 data own network.
  • Safeguarding sensitive performance data with IATA.
  • Maintaining ownership of the methodology and calculation logic within the industry.
  • Driving further improvements to the CO2 Connect calculator.

Here's how IATA CO2 Connect works?

Data Contribution

Data Contribution
