Flight-free Byway shows how slow travel cuts carbon

Byway’s third impact report shows how the company is delivering on its mission to make flight-free travel mainstream. 

Byway is the first 100% flight-free holiday planning operation founded in 2020 by Cat Jones. Trips, currently available across Europe, include customised transport, accommodation and ondemand expert advice, plus a low carbon footprint. 

The Byway survey reveals how the company is growing its offering of flight-free slow travel. It is thought that 10% of all the world’s greenhouse gas emissions come from tourism, with at least 2.5% of global carbon emissions attributed directly to flying. 

Over the past year Byway says it has grown 450%, saved 170 tonnes of CO2, expanded into 22 new regions.
