Wizz Air launches SAF trial to prepare for EU mandate
The trial will also involve a passenger survey to understand consumer awareness of SAF.
Wizz Air is set to procure sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) at two European airports to test blends’ alignment with upcoming EU regulations mandating a minimum SAF content of 2% from 2025.
The Hungarian low-cost airline will purchase SAF to supply two of its major routes: Barcelona to Budapest, and Brussels Charleroi to Budapest, achieving an up to 5% SAF blend for the former and up to 10% SAF blend for the latter.
