Atlantic Aviation Teams with 4AIR for 100% SAF Book & Claim at NBAA-BACE
/A Note of Respect from Atlantic Aviation
Our hearts and efforts at Atlantic Aviation are focused on supporting the people of Florida and Southeast who were impacted by Hurricane Ian, including Atlantic Aviation facilities, clients, and team members. We understand NBAA has elected to continue with NBAA-BACE in Orlando. And, in that regard, we have news that was planned earlier to share prior to the show. However, this in no way lessens our respect, concern, and support for those people and businesses now facing a tremendous rebuilding effort in the storm’s aftermath, and we stand ready to assist in the weeks and months to come.
Atlantic Aviation has teamed with 4AIR to offer 100% Book & Claim SAF at its Orlando Executive Airport (ORL) and Orlando International Airport (MCO) locations during NBAA-BACE 2022.
Atlantic Aviation Teams with 4AIR for 100% SAF Book & Claim at NBAA-BACE
Atlantic Aviation and 4AIR will be advancing their commitment to sustainability at this year’s NBAA Business Aviation Convention & Exhibition (BACE) by offering a Book & Claim program for customers arriving at Atlantic’s FBOs at Orlando Executive Airport (KORL) and Orlando International Airport (KMCO). All Jet-A offered for purchase during NBAA-BACE at Atlantic Aviation’s ORL and MCO locations will be Book & Claim SAF gallons – and there will be no premium charged for these gallons as the program is being underwritten completely by Atlantic Aviation.
4AIR will provide accounting and verification of claimed SAF purchases and will supply customers with emissions reductions receipts as SAF gallons are dispensed during NBAA-BACE using their SAF Delivery Receipt program developed in conjunction with NATA. The receipts will summarize key sustainability information and provide traceability through the book and claim process, ensuring only one user can claim the environmental benefit of the fuel.
Book & Claim is a transactional process which gives fuel purchasers the option to buy or “claim” SAF that is not physically available in their geography but can be consumed elsewhere (or “booked”) without its sustainability attributes by another purchaser. The purchaser of the SAF gallons receives credit for the environmental impact of the renewable fuel that is dispensed as a drop-in fuel elsewhere in the world (“claimed”). This unique program eliminates the significant environmental impact of physically trucking in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) from west coast refineries for the aviation industry gathering, while still allowing customers to realize the environmental benefit associated with SAF when they make their fuel purchases.
Atlantic currently offers continuously available SAF in Aspen, Colorado (KASE), Thermal/Palm Springs, California (KTRM), and San Jose, California (KSJC). And, in addition to KORL and KMCO, Atlantic Aviation offers Book & Claim via Avfuel contract fuel at its locations in KASE and KSJC, with additional locations coming online soon.
