Thai Airways operates first Asian passenger biofuel flight

Thai Airways International is set to be the first airline in Asia to fly a commercial passenger flight using biofuels, with the Dec 22 flight from Bangkok to Chiang Mai.

The flight, to follow a non-commercial one on Dec 21, is to support the company’s Travel Green initiative that is part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programme.

THAI President Piyasvasti Amranand said that under the CSR strategy, THAI has developed an important project on sustainability, in line with His Majesty the King’s vision on renewable energy. Using the bio jet fuel is a way to help reduce global warming and carbon dioxide emissions.
