It was already known that RDC would be taking over the Stockholm–Berlin night train on a commercial basis from September (following the Swedish railway operator SJ’s decision to discontinue the service due to the withdrawal of subsidies for winter operations), what was not known was the frequency: Sweden will now be connected to the continent three times a week, even in winter. https://www.nachtexpress.de/en/timetable/ #nighttrains #flygskam #tågskryt

Many Europeans know what #flygskam is these days. I'd appreciate more people to actually feel techno-fascism shame instead.

#flygskam " le premier hub international [..]du monde" ...!!

en effet c'est une histoire bien "folle"

"These wealthy frequent flyers have a very large carbon footprint. That's because flying is one of the most carbon-intensive activities we can do. For example, taking one return flight to New York would generate more carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions than driving a car for a whole year."

First stretch on the way home.... Yes I have #FlightShame #Flygskam.
But honestly, flying at 5000m in an unpressurized cabin is more of an "Experience" than a luxury.

Are we really going to cheer every #plutocrat & #autocrat that has a spat with #ElonMusk, think Trump & #MichaelOLeary?

If you are after an ethical positioning on the #Ryanair buy-out, here is one: stop #flying

Reusable bag tags for checked bags should be an industry-wide aviation practice.

SAS is killing its reusable checked bag tag program on January 1, 2026. It only offered it to people who achieved “conscious traveler” status, which I just got in November. (I had to buy the biofuel surcharge on every flight and donate points.)

Conscious Traveler-bagagetagg

Du behöver aldrig skriva ut en bagagetagg igen när du reser med SAS. Sätt bara fast den återanvändbara Conscious Traveler-bagagetaggen på ditt incheckade bagage »

Kun oltiin joitain vuosia sitten lomalla Nizzassa. puolison kanssa, siihen aikaan kun minulla ei vielä ollut #flygskam:ia, niin kävimme yhtenä päivänä paikallisjunalla muistaakseni juuri siinä kaupungissa. Mahtavat maisemat. Sääkin ilmeisesti suosii joten varmaan pääsen vähän kävelemään vuoristossa. Vihdoin.

@GeePawHill Just this. It is only by acting that we lead from the front. It's only by leading from the front that we persuade others to copy our actions. One individual action by one individual person will not change the world, but when that is copied many, many times -- when it 'goes viral' -- it will.

@bonpoteofficiel I wrote a series of essays earlier this year about why we can't have 'green' aviation fuel, or, indeed, any aviation fuel at all.

J'ai écrit une série d'essais plus tôt cette année sur les raisons pour lesquelles nous ne pouvons pas avoir de carburant d'aviation « vert », ni même de carburant d'aviation du tout.

The potato famine and aviation fuel

A litre of aviation fuel is 8,250 calories; a ton of aviation fuel is 1,250 litres, so a ton is slightly north of ten million calories. The world burns 99 billion gallons of aviation fuel per year, or about three billion tons; that's around three quadrillion calories. That's the equivalent of food for 3 billion people
