Carbon Impact 

 

OFS Travel takes Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) and environmental sustainability seriously.We are proud of our green initiative. If required we can measure, monitor and analyse  travel related carbon emissions. We use the International Carbon Reduction and Offset Alliance (ICROA) which is a non-profit industry body promoting best practice in voluntary carbon management and offsetting. We use the ICAO Carbon Emissions Calculator (iPhone and iPad application) which  allows passengers to estimate the emissions attributed to their air travel. The methodology applies the best publicly available industry data to account for various factors such as aircraft types, route specific data, passenger load factors and cargo carried. We will use this information to offset flights through tree planting.
