Our priority is to reduce gross emissions as much as technology will allow, before utilising carbon removal solutions as a last resort.

In the meantime, we voluntarily purchase and retire carbon credits for the carbon emissions associated with our staff travelling for work on the Air New Zealand network. We also offer the ability for our customers to purchase and retire carbon credits and support biodiversity projects in New Zealand via our Voluntary Emissions Contribution Programme.
