PUNE: IndiGo has been recognised with the prestigious award titled ‘Asia Environmental Sustainability Airline of the Year’ by the Centre for Asia Pacific Aviation (CAPA), a globally respected authority on aviation market intelligence, airline officials said.
Notably, the airline stands out as the sole Indian airline brand to be recognised among the other distinguished recipients at CAPA’s annual Environmental Sustainability Awards for Excellence, which took place in Kuala Lumpur on November 2. This event witnessed the participation of prominent aviation leaders from around the world, underscoring the industry’s unwavering commitment to environmental objectives.
Pieter Elbers, Chief Executive Officer of IndiGo, said, “At IndiGo we are immensely proud and humbled to be recognised as one of the lowest CO2 emitting airlines per unit in the world. Currently, around 80% of our fleet is new generation. With our continuous and massive investments in new generation aircraft, we have been able to reduce our CO2 footprint per available seat kilometer by around 20% in the last seven years. Today’s award is a testimony to our commitment to deliver our customer promise in the most sustainable way possible.”
The CAPA Aviation Sustainability Awards for Excellence utilises a range of independently sourced data and analysis, as well as an in-depth judging process to recognise aviation leaders putting environmental sustainability at the forefront of their strategy.
