Neste to provide sustainable aviation fuel to Hotelplan Group
Neste announced that it will supply sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) to Hoteplan Group, a Swiss travel group mainly focused on the leisure and business travel sector. The SAF will enable the group to extend the use of SAF across its organization.
According to Neste’s announcement, Hotelplan Group will purchase unblended or neat SAF via Neste Impact for 300,000 Swiss Francs (CHF).
Neste Impact is a solution that allows companies to credibly decrease the carbon footprint of air travel activities.
The purchase of the SAF will be an addition to the Hotelplan Group’s strategy, which comprises promoting the use of SAF and the reduction of CO2 emissions from the atmosphere through the utilisation of innovative technologies.

Laura Meyer, CEO of Hotelplan Group, said, “We don’t yet have all the answers to the issues related to more sustainable tourism development. But we are adopting a proactive approach to developing our sustainability strategy, focusing on innovative solutions and actively seeking ways to assume responsibility.”
She added, “SAF is currently only available in limited quantities and is more expensive to produce than conventional jet fuel. By purchasing the entire Hotelplan Group, we can secure larger volumes of SAF and make it available to our customers. This will also allow us to support the ongoing development and scaling of this innovative technology.”
The flights taken by Hoteplan Group customers are the primary cause of the organisation’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
The SAF provided by Neste will allow Hoteplan Group to provide its customers with more sustainable travel options. Hotelplan also intends to use SAF for some of its own business trips.
