Air New Zealand has agreed to purchase 9 million liters of
neat sustainable aviation fuel from producer Neste, the carrier announced
Monday. Neither company disclosed the value of the deal.
The fuel will be produced at Neste’s Singapore refinery and
will be blended with conventional jet fuel and supplied to Los Angeles
International Airport between April 1 and Nov. 30, 2024, according to the
carrier. Air New Zealand expected its total fuel uptake during that period to
be about 850 million liters across its network.
The carrier said the deal is the “largest purchase of
SAF from Neste by any airline outside of North America and Europe for delivery
before the end of 2024.”
