Heathrow’s Flight Emissions Have Dropped 7%, Third Runway Closer Than Ever插图

Carbon emissions from flights at Heathrow in 2025 had fallen to 7% below 2019 levels, according to the airport’s sustainability report published on Thursday.

“Our latest carbon footprint shows that carbon from flights is 7% below our 2019 baseline, with additional reductions delivered through increased use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF),” Matthew Gorman, director of carbon strategy at Heathrow, said in a LinkedIn post.

SAF, which, according to IATA, can reduce carbon emissions from flights by up to 80%, made up 3.1% of fuel used at the airport last year. 

The results put the airport, which handled a record-breaking 478,000 passenger-carrying flights last year, on track to meet its goal of cutting flight emissions by 15% by 2030.

This could prove an important development in the airport’s long-running plan to build a third runway.
