Hello Scandinavian Airlines, #SAS.

Regarding - https://www.sasgroup.net/newsroom/press-releases/2026/sas-lack-of-sustainable-fuel-could-push-aviation-into-new-energy-crisis/

Your fuel cost is your problem.
I can think of at least one other way for you to meet this requirement.

And interestingly, it seems Lufthansa can too - https://newsroom.lufthansagroup.com/en/lufthansa-group-optimises-flight-offering-in-summer-across-all-six-hubs/#

SAS: Lack of sustainable fuel could push aviation into new energy crisis - SAS

Show threadAndrew MillarApr 20

@tml Sounds worthwhile in the day too, given @seatsixtyone recommendation,
"If I had to name Europe's most spectacular train ride, it'd probably be the journey from Belgrade to Podgorica and Bar in Montenegro"
One for the 🚄⛴️ list!

Have any #StayGrounded or #FlyingLess folk here tried it?

Tell Rachel Reeves: don’t put plane profits before planet

Chancellor Rachel Reeves has backed airport expansion while we're in a climate emergency. Expanding airports like Heathrow, Luton and Gatwick won’t do much, if anything, for the communities that need growth the most. Instead, benefits will be enjoyed by shareholders and the wealthiest few who fly frequently. Airport expansions mean more subsidies for a heavily polluting industry - when we desperately need to be doing all we can to reduce emissions.

In spite of having read several of Iain Banks' non-Sci Fi oeuvre I had never been remotely tempted by the culture novels, though I have friends who raves about them at Uni. Then I spotted this on a summer reading table at the library, which I suppose shows the value of a good librarian...

Ruth_Mottram - Long trip back to Copenhagen starts with EV to Lyon + a packed but slowly emptying train to Geneva, during which I have been completely captured by an #IainMBanks #Culture novel. Actually, surprisingly my first. That's the gift of both train travel and a good book. #bookstodon #booksky #FlyingLess

@Ruth_Mottram Hope you had a good trip - I'm currently in Finland, got here with train to Stockholm, 11h ferry (but with fantastic skærgård views) to Åbo, then train journeys in #Finland. When planning I had hoped to avoid planes, but I either had to reverse my whole route, or include the three baltic countries and get another ferry from Kleipeda - it became too much so ended up with plane ticket Helsinki-Copenhagen. But otherwise nice feeling getting so far away without flying. Other than environmental benefits it feels more real to travel this way, last evening I saw a 'distance to cities signpost' with Esbjerg 1880 km, that's a long way...

Tip for #FlyingLess as a family: prepare for long train rides with games. When the board + card games start to pall, #privacy friendly app games by @secusoresearch.bsky.social are brilliant; easy to use, stable + not stealing your data (or trying to sell your kids stuff).
