Malaysia Airlines Will Fly Its First Flight Powered By Used Cooking Oil To Singapore This Sunday!
Malaysia Airlines has just announced its first flight to our neighbors in Singapore, using a commercial plane powered entirely by used cooking oil!
According to The Sun Daily, the inaugural flight will take place in conjunction with World Environment Day, which is set to take place this Sunday, June 5th, 2022. The company says the flight is meant to reaffirm their continued commitment to a Sustainable Tomorrow, with used cooking oil replacing typical kerosene-based fuels found in most aircraft.
Used cooking oil, termed as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), will power two flights this Sunday: one from Kuala Lumpur to Singapore via MH603, and another from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur via MH606.
“The flights will be operated on the Boeing 737-800 aircraft, using a blend of approximately 38 per cent SAF and conventional jet fuel.
“Compared to conventional fossil jet fuel, this sustainable fuel option, made from 100 per cent renewable waste and residue raw materials (such as cooking oil), can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by up to 80 per cent,” the company explained in a statement.
Those of you who want to experience what it's like to fly on a plane powered by Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) can buy tickets to either flight MH603 or MH606 before they take off this Sunday!
If you purchase your tickets before June 5th, 2022, using the promo code 'SAF2022,' you will receive a 15% discount on both flights.
