Cologne Bonn Airport makes SAF avaiblable for airlines

Neste has set up a supply of Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) at Cologne Bonn Airport.
Neste is helping to meet increasing levels of demand from air freight and corporate customers at Cologne Bonn Airport.
AFS, the leading provider for aviation fuelling services in Germany, supports Neste to serve this market.
The first flight fuelled with Neste MY SAF was a cargo flight early June operated by ASL Airlines on behalf of Amazon.
Cologne Bonn Airport is one of the first German airports where Neste MY SAF is now available for all airlines.
Since Cologne is a major cargo hub in Germany, the availability of SAF will provide global shippers the opportunity to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions caused by their air freight. The first customer to benefit from this opportunity was Amazon.
“We are proud to be able to offer our airlines sustainable alternative aviation fuels. We are already using numerous technical innovations at Cologne Bonn Airport - from solar panels and LED technology to innovative building services and alternatively powered vehicles and equipment on the apron. Employing Sustainable Aviation Fuel is another important step towards our long-term goal of CO2-neutral flight," said Johan Vanneste, president and CEO of Flughafen Köln/Bonn.
“Despite the challenging business environment, the aviation industry, and the cargo sector in particular, is showing increased commitment to invest in sustainable aviation fuel in order to offer lower-carbon fuels to its customers,” added Jonathan Wood, Vice President Europe, Renewable Aviation at Neste.
“We are really pleased to welcome Cologne Bonn Airport to the growing network of airports with SAF availability, and look forward to making further progress in reducing aviation-related greenhouse gas emissions.”
