Offset your carbon footprint
Easily Offset Your Carbon Footprint
You can offset your carbon emission with one of the following organizations sorted alphabetically:
Our private jet carbon footprint offset calculator is an educational tool that allows you to see a selection of the best jets for a given private jet charter flight in terms of CO2 emissions. Please note that sometimes the greenest option may not be the best choice, as there may be situations where the jet with the lowest emission will not be available within proximity and will have to be repositioned which will emit additional CO2.
The tool simply provides suggestions that may or may not be taken into consideration. If you would like to know if a recommended jet is available for the route, please don't hesitate to contact us.
Why Is It Worth Reducing The Carbon Footprint?
Global CO2 emissions rebound by nearly
5% in 2021, approaching the 2018-2019 peak*

Home to almost 8 billion people, with more than 70% of its surface covered by oceans. Yet, a number of environmental issues occur on the planet. Even though we know some things may negatively influence the Earth, it's hard to radically change the way we live and travel. But, there are some things that we, as humans, can do to make living on our planet a bit better, like reducing our carbon footprint or purchasing offsets.
Offset Your Carbon Footprint By Investing In Nature
Trees are an important part of our world.
Without them, life on our planet wouldn’t exist. They supply us with the most vital chemical element – oxygen, but they also protect the ground from erosion, and absorb CO2, saving us from pollution. Let’s take a look at the numbers.
Seagrass Is Our Best Ally In Reducing The Carbon Footprint
Oceans cover the largest area of our world – more than ⅔ of the globe. But did you know that seagrass is responsible for 70% of the world’s oxygen? In the infographic below, you can see the data, from the number of potentially planted seagrass to the absorbed CO2 all the way to produced oxygen.
Now you know that. How about offseting your flight?

The JavaScript file contains two JSON objects (aircraftById and aircraftByCategory) for the aircraft data, including the fuel burn for each type of aircraft. These numbers have been sourced through research.
Some aircraft do not have fuel burn numbers. For those aircraft, the system estimates the fuel burn by taking the average of all the other aircraft in the same category.
The formula used to calculate the emissions in pounds (lbs) is:
- Emissions (lbs)
- = Flight Time (hours) x Fuel Burn (gal/hr) x 21.1*
The emissions are converted to Metric Tonnes (mT) as follows:
- Emissions (mT)
- = Emissions (lbs) / 2204.60
*21.1 is the Carbon Dioxide Emissions Coefficient for Jet Fuel (lbs of CO2 emitted per gallon of fuel burnt), as specified by the Energy Information Administration.
