Xiamen Airlines's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Xiamen Airlines reported its carbon emissions data, although specific figures for total emissions in kg CO2e were not disclosed. The airline's emissions are primarily assessed through its carbon dioxide emissions per tonne-kilometre (RTK), which stands at approximately 0.00092 kg CO2e. This figure reflects the airline's operational efficiency in terms of carbon output relative to the distance flown and the weight carried. For the previous years, Xiamen Airlines reported an ATK carbon dioxide emission of about 0.636 kg CO2e in 2021 and approximately 0.623 kg CO2e in 2020. These figures indicate a slight improvement in emissions efficiency over the years, although specific reduction targets or commitments have not been outlined in their disclosures. Currently, Xiamen Airlines has not established any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, which may limit its ability to demonstrate a proactive approach to climate change mitigation. The absence of disclosed Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data further complicates the assessment of its overall carbon footprint. In summary, while Xiamen Airlines has made strides in improving its emissions efficiency, the lack of comprehensive emissions data and formal climate commitments suggests that there is significant room for enhancement in its sustainability initiatives.
