A carbon footprint is the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions arising from a specific activity, such as your flight. The CO2 emissions of a flight depend on the aircraft used, the distance flown and the amount of passengers and cargo the aircraft carries.

You can choose how much of your contribution goes to Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), and how much to support climate projects that reduce, capture, or avoid greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. The climate projects our service supports are certified by credible and internationally recognized carbon certification standards such as the VCS, the Gold Standard, American Carbon Registry, and Climate Action Reserve.

Your compensation is not connected to your flight reservation, but you can claim a refund through CHOOOSE by emailing finnair-support@chooose.today. The refund is not processed automatically if you cancel your flight.

Yes, as the compensation is not connected to your flight reservation, you can also compensate after you have flown. 

The price of sustainable aviation fuel is quite high, and that is why it is important to stimulate its demand and supply, to get the price down and increase availability.

CHOOOSE, who is Finnair's partner in providing this service, takes €0.35 per passenger per leg for administrative costs.
