Virgin Atlantic's first 100% sustainable aviation fuel flight takes off

Flight 100 marks a milestone in aviation by flying from London to New York on 100% sustainable fuel. This initiative demonstrates the safety and feasibility of sustainable aviation, aiming to decarbonise long haul flights. A mandate will require airlines to use at least 10% sustainable aviation fuel by 2030, supported by taxpayer money and private investment to build SAF plants. The goal is to create a future where flights are carbon-free, though challenges remain. The successful takeoff of Flight 100 on sustainable fuel is a significant step forward.
