The airline has set a significant target to reduce well-to-wake greenhouse gas emissions related to jet fuel by 35% per revenue tonne kilometre by FY2035, using FY2019 as the baseline year. This commitment includes biogenic emissions and removals from bioenergy feedstocks but does not account for non-CO2e effects contributing to aviation-induced warming. EasyJet's climate strategy aligns with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), classifying its targets as consistent with keeping global warming well below 2°C. The airline is also committed to reporting annually on its collaboration with stakeholders to mitigate non-CO2e impacts of aviation.
