local impact on the environment in the form of noise.
As of September 2007, all of the aircraft in easyJet’s
fleet were compliant with the latest international noise
standards, known as “Chapter 3”. Furthermore, easyJet’s
entire fleet conformed to the more stringent standard,
known as “Chapter 4” as of September 2007.
The easyJet environmental code
There is no accepted single measure for an airline’s
environmental efficiency. In the absence of such a
measure, easyJet has set itself the target of being a
leading environmentally efficient and responsible
airline. easyJet has established an environmental code,
which it aims to use to monitor progress towards
this target. The environmental code is centred around
three promises:
1) easyJet strives to be efficient in the air
2) easyJet strives to be efficient on the ground
3) easyJet aims to lead the way in shaping a greener
future for aviation.

1. easyJet strives to be efficient in
the air
A. Investment in the latest technology
easyJet’s policy is to grow its fleet using the latest
technology aircraft whilst retiring older aircraft, usually
within seven to ten years of delivery. New technology
aircraft are more fuel efficient than older models.
At 30 September 2007, easyJet’s fleet had an average
age of 2.7 years, an increase of 0.4 years from
September 2006.
Since 2000 easyJet’s emissions of CO2 per passenger
kilometre has reduced by 18%.
B. Efficient use of aircraft
Our standard aircraft is the Airbus A319. The typical
seating configuration of an Airbus A319 is 124 seats
(source: Airbus). Our no-frills service allows us to
reduce the space and weight inside the plane devoted
to galleys, lavatories and storage. Our Airbus A319s fly
with 156 seats.
Each of our Airbus A319s carries 26%
more seats than the norm.
Our simple automated pricing allows us to sell
significantly more seats than a typical European airline.
Our average load factor (percentage of seats sold) in
2006 was 84.8%; the average load factor for European
airlines in 2005 was 68.3%5. easyJet sells on average
132 seats per flight; a typical European airline would
sell 84 seats per flight.
Each of our Airbus A319s potentially carries 57% more
passengers per flight than the European norm.
Using a conservative estimate and assuming the
carriage of no cargo (plus the same baggage allowance)
the weight of the additional passengers carried by
easyJet in this calculation would require an additional
23% more fuel for the same route length than carriers
flying with 84 passengers.
easyJet estimates that the typical European airline
operating an Airbus A319 would burn 27% more fuel
per passenger compared to easyJet on the same route.
C. Direct point to point flights, no connections
Conventional airlines operate networks based on
a “hub and spoke” system. In these networks, the
majority of passengers will take two flights to reach
their destination, connecting through the hub. easyJet
always flies direct, or “point-to-point”, and does not
offer any connecting services. A direct service between
two points will produce lower emissions than two
flights via a hub.
Example: easyJet offers a direct service from Berlin
to Madrid. If a customer chooses to fly the same route
via Paris Orly, which lies on the path of the direct flight,
easyJet estimates that this routing would result in 19%
more CO2 emissions than if the customer had taken
the direct flight.
Example: on a shorter route, the effect of changing
aircraft at an airport positioned away from the direct
route adds considerably more to the fuel burn per
passenger trip. easyJet estimates that a trip from Berlin
to Nice via Paris Orly would add 45% to the direct
route distance and would add 57% to the CO2
emissions generated per passenger.
A small proportion of easyJet’s customers do buy
combinations of flights to reach their final destination,
where a direct easyJet service does not exist.
If numbers of customers build up on certain routings,
easyJet will actively look to open direct services to
