We are delighted to welcome Yusen Logistics as our cargo SAF program partner, to jointly promote and implement SAF usage.
“We remain committed to the industry’s climate change goals, and the sustainable development of the air cargo industry.”
Eisuke Fukagawa, Global Head of Airfreight Forwarding Group, Yusen Logistics said:
Yusen Logistics is also committed to the 2050 net-zero target.
“With this partnership with Korean Air, we are able to support our customers to decarbonize their supply chains and help stimulate larger supply for SAF.”
In September 2023, Korean Air launched a program to use SAF for air cargo operations with air cargo customers and forwarders, a first of its kind in Korea in the air cargo industry. Customers are able to purchase SAF for air cargo operations, and Korean Air will share the carbon emissions reductions with its customers.
Korean Air is committed to cooperating with all relevant governments, clients and oil refinery companies to expedite the use of SAF and create an efficient domestic SAF infrastructure in Korea.
