At SAS Cargo we want to make it easy for our customers to transport more sustainably and fossil free. Therefore, we have developed a Corporate Sustainability Program, where you as corporate customer, are able to replace fossil fuel with Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) on a larger scale.

SAF is a biofuel used to power aircraft that has similar properties to conventional jet fuel but with a smaller carbon footprint. The use of SAF is an important step on the road to zero-emission flights.
