Teesside Airport joins Air France-KLM’s SAF program

In the UK, Teesside International Airport said it has become the UK’s first airport to partner with Air France-KLM for the airline’s program to boost the use of SAF. This new program is allowing the airline to partner with organizations and companies such as Teesside Airport to accelerate the production, adoption and usage of SAF. The program also supports Teesside’s own plans to ensure the airport’s buildings and infrastructure hit Net Zero before the end of this decade. Fahmi Mahjoub, General Manager of Air France-KLM for the UK and Ireland, said: “I am very excited to welcome Teesside International Airport as the first airport in the UK to join our SAF program. This is a major step forward in addressing our sustainability challenge as an aviation company by partnering with a UK airport to help the environment. Today marks the start of a new level of cooperation across the industry and we hope that this news helps spread the awareness in the UK and that more companies will join us in making SAF more readily available around the globe.”
