TUI and Repsol team up to launch first biofuel coach trial

TUI marked the beginning of a new chapter in its bid to lower transport emissions in destinations when one of its coaches ran entirely on used cooking oil.
The transport was for 55 guests when they were picked them up from their hotel to go to Alicante Airport.
In collaboration with Repsol, TUI is piloting this biofuel initiative in parts of its Benidorm fleet of coaches. Starting from mid-October, a portion of the fleet will be running on renewable diesel, also known as HVO.
TUI remains optimistic about the potential of this trial and is actively exploring further ways to lower emissions across its ground transport operations.
Ground transport is just one part of TUI's efforts to lower emissions. The company has also set emission reduction targets for its airline, cruises, and hotels, which have been validated by the independent Science Based Targets initiative, a collaboration between the UN Global Compact, the World Resources Institute (WRI), the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) and CDP.
The company’s ongoing commitment to responsible travel continues to shape its future plans, with more exciting developments expected soon.
