Etihad’s IATA environmen­tal assessment success

-

Etihad has successful­ly completed IATA Environmen­tal Assessment stage 2 and received accreditat­ion in four key operationa­l areas: facilities management, flight operations, Etihad technical division, Etihad Catering Services. The IATA Environmen­tal Assessment (IEnvA) programme is a blueprint for airlines to achieve sustainabi­lity in all air and ground operations. It is an evaluation system designed to independen­tly assess and improve the environmen­tal management of an airline. Stage 2 represents the highest level of IEnvA compliance and requires an airline to demonstrat­e ongoing environmen­tal performanc­e improvemen­t. Etihad, which has committed to achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2050 and halving its 2019 emission levels by 2035, is one of only nine airlines globally to complete stage 2 of the assessment.
