Virgin Atlantic have taken big steps in the fight for the use of more sustainable products. As of the 10th of September 2019, Virgin Atlantic have introduced one of the most sustainable amenity kits in the sky. The new amenity ‘Goodie Bag’ will create a saving of 945 tonnes of plastic per year, equal to the weight of more than 6 Airbus A350-1000 aircrafts.

Executive Vice President Corneel Koster, at Virgin Atlantic said: “Virgin Atlantic has always played by its own rules and our new amenities are no exception. Our commitment to sustainability is key to who we are, and we fully understand the importance to our customers. We have developed and selected better quality, innovative, sustainable amenities, which can be enjoyed onboard, and used again at home”.
