Fewer CO2 emissions:

Due to our high load factor, and large number of passengers in the cabin (186 and 240), we are the airline that emits the lowest amount of CO2 emissions per passenger. This means that we are able to achieve lower fuel consumption, by transporting the largest number of passengers per flight.

By 2025, we are committed to achieving the following goal:

43gr

of CO2 emissions per passenger

*85% load factor projection

Our engine efficiency:

We are the airline with the newest fleet in all of Mexico. Each aircraft is on average, 5.1 years old.

Our fleet of 69 aircraft is partially made up of neo, which are equipped with fuel-efficient technology and have lower noise emissions. Viva will add 40 aircraft by the end of 2026.

The majority of our routes are from point A to point B:

Most of our flights are direct and non-stop, which help avoid excessive fuel use and CO2 emissions.

We use the most efficient aircraft based on the route length, in order to optimize operations and the use of resources.

In July of 2020, we received our first , the first of its kind in Latin America, which reinforces our commitment with the environment:

  • More efficient and powerful engines
  • A larger cabin capacity (240 passengers), to help further reduce CO2 emissions per passenger
  • 15% reduction in fuel consumption
  • 50% reduction in NOx* (nitrogen oxide)
  • Reduction in noise emissions*

*vs. previous versions of A320
