ATA Airlines, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Southwest Airlines Co.

ATA Airlines, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years. The company is a merged entity and inherits its emissions data from its parent company, Southwest Airlines Co. As such, any climate commitments or emissions performance metrics are reflective of this relationship. ATA Airlines has not publicly disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. However, emissions data and performance metrics are cascaded from Southwest Airlines Co., which is actively engaged in sustainability efforts and has set various climate-related goals. While specific figures for ATA Airlines are not available, the broader context of the airline industry indicates a growing emphasis on reducing carbon footprints and enhancing sustainability practices. The lack of direct emissions data suggests that ATA Airlines may still be in the process of establishing its own climate commitments or aligning with those of its parent company. In summary, ATA Airlines, Inc. currently lacks specific emissions data and reduction targets, relying on the sustainability initiatives of Southwest Airlines Co. for its climate commitments.
