How would skipping a stop have a negative influence on emissions? It must be the weight of the extra fuel, but I'm somewhat surprised it adds such a substantial overhead when you're so high up in the sky most of the time.
- pduan 4y agoThe article explains why. These routes have fewer economy seats.
- gpvos 4y agoIt's about emissions per passenger. They had to remove seats because of the weight of all the fuel, see the article.
- PeterisP 4y agoYou're putting much less passengers in the same plane - the extra fuel takes up the space where ~100 passengers would sit if it was done as two flights with a refueling stop.
