In 2023, Allegiant Air reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2.85 million tonnes CO2e. This figure includes 2.22 million tonnes CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which primarily arise from direct fuel combustion, and about 0.63 million tonnes CO2e from Scope 3 emissions, encompassing indirect emissions from the supply chain and other activities. Scope 2 emissions, related to purchased electricity, were minimal at approximately 1.71 million tonnes CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, Allegiant Air's total emissions were around 2.77 million tonnes CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at about 2.15 million tonnes CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at approximately 0.61 million tonnes CO2e. The 2021 emissions were significantly higher, at about 3.22 million tonnes CO2e, indicating a downward trend in emissions over the past two years. Despite these figures, Allegiant Air has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The absence of formal reduction commitments suggests that while the airline is actively monitoring its emissions, it has yet to establish a structured plan for significant future reductions.
