States are essential to scaling up the use of SAF, a key pillar to achieving business aviation’s climate goals. Support for SAF incentives, infrastructure, and public-private partnerships will help expand availability. States should also engage with international efforts like ICAO’s FinVest hub to unlock financing, and back trusted SAF accounting frameworks such as the one being advanced by CoSAFA to ensure credible tracking of SAF’s environmental attributes.

Improving air traffic management can yield immediate environmental benefits. Air Navigation Service Providers should prioritize access to more direct flight routings, continuous climb and descent procedures, and optimal cruising altitudes. These measures can significantly reduce fuel burn and emissions, supporting our shared climate goals.

Business aviation is a critical component of the broader global air transport network, offering flexible, on-demand connectivity that supports economic development and essential public services. To craft effective and implementable sustainability policies, regular collaborative engagement with local and regional business aviation associations is necessary. Ongoing dialogue will ensure that policy measures are inclusive, proportionate, and reflective of the sector’s operational realities and capacity to contribute to shared environmental goals.

To truly drive sustainable aviation forward, innovation must remain central to our collective efforts. This includes State funding for R&D in new propulsion systems, electric and hybrid aircraft, and investment in modern, resilient aviation infrastructure. By supporting a long-term vision for green aviation, States will help unlock the potential in new technologies and help ensure business aviation can meet its climate commitments.
