ANA to cut CO2 by scrapping printed magazines

ANA is taking steps to reach its sustainability goals by providing its inflight magazine and other onboard publications digitally. From April, these magazines and newspapers will be transitioned to be offered on the internet and on the Japanese carrier’s mobile app. ANA highlights that the decision to move these publications, including the inflight magazine, “TSUBASA-GLOBAL WINGS,” will result in the reduction of approximately 1,540 tons of paper emissions each year. The operator is focused on improving both sustainability standards and the travel experience for its customers. The company shifted the design of the inflight magazine to make it easier to read on screens. Additionally, it has language options in Japanese, English, and Chinese, which is similar to the initial paper format. Customers of the airline can have a read of it at any time via their mobile devices, not just on the aircraft.<br/>
