More sustainable journeys. As we designed our refreshed B737-800 NG cabins, we also took the opportunity to build in more sustainable features that will reduce our environmental impact with every flight. We are reducing weight with our next-generation wireless in-flight entertainment system that removes the need for seat-back screens; lighter and slimmer seats; as well as consciously choosing lighter materials whenever possible – such as by changing our cabin dividers from hard partitions to soft dividers. To date, we have managed to reduce our aircraft weight by about 679 kilograms. This reduces fuel consumption by about 91,029 litres per aircraft every year – a significant step forward to a more sustainable future for aviation, and our planet.
