Scope 3 emissions for the same year totalled approximately 532.15 million kg CO2e, with fuel and energy-related activities constituting the largest portion. The airline has set a target to improve its operational carbon efficiency by 45% per revenue passenger kilometre (RPK) by 2030, compared to 2010 levels. This commitment aligns with the International Panel on Climate Change's recommendation to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Previous years' emissions data includes approximately 2.49 billion kg CO2e in 2023, with Scope 1 emissions around 2.04 billion kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at approximately 442.66 million kg CO2e. In 2022, total emissions were not explicitly calculated, but Scope 1 emissions were about 1.74 billion kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions were approximately 369.45 million kg CO2e. For 2021, Scope 1 emissions were around 606.48 million kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions approximately 733.77 million kg CO2e. Earlier data from 2018 indicates Scope 1 emissions of about 6.16 billion kg CO2e, and from 2017, Scope 1 emissions were approximately 4.62 billion kg CO2e.
