By replacing older model planes with next-generation Boeing 747s aircrafts, the airline has reduced both noise pollution as well as carbon emissions. These new planes have also streamlined the seating layout to fit in more seats, meaning fewer trips are needed to transport the same amount of passengers on the route. Kalula also introduced a paperless cockpit and serves their food in recyclable packaging to reduce paper waste overall.

  • How can I fly more sustainably from Durban to Johannesburg?

    Being a local flight that will only take one hour in travel time, the best way to reduce your carbon emissions is to look at modes of transport that do not contribute to the carbon footprint quite as much as flying might. However, if you are on a tight schedule and are required to fly, you should book a direct flight which is a good way to reduce carbon emissions as a traveller. Another sure-fire way to help in the saving of our planet is to be aware of packing light. All modes of transport from the bus you take to get to the airport to the plane itself, use more fuel if the weight they are moving is heavier. Try taking only items that are essential to your trip, to reduce the weight of your luggage and look at renting items needed at the destination rather than taking them with you.
