This is good news. Of course it's not ideal because the net zero plan is based on offsets, and it would be even better to curb emissions altogether, but it is still a big step forward. We believe that financial support to ecosystems and communities, specially in places such as Africa, is so important that the offset compromise is justified. We can arrange full offsets for all holidays (the accommodation as well as the flights) and we will raise this with you when you book through us. message us or give us a call to find out more.

UN member states pledge to decarbonise air travel, but green groups say the deal is weak and non-binding.
