SUSTAINABILITY AT VOLOTEAOUR FEET IN THE PRESENT AND OUR WINGS IN THE FUTURE.
Without losing sight of the social and environmental dimension of our activities.
WE ARE PART OF THE CITIES THAT HAVE WELCOMED US IN
In over 90 Volotea cities in 14 countries, we operate low-cost direct flights that create better connectivity between cities and enhance the mobility of those who live there. Each of these locations is not only the place from which we take off but also a community of which we are a part.
We add to the prosperity of the cities that have welcomed us in
We support organisations that help these cities to thrive and we make sure that we offer a service that is useful to the local population, without forgetting to manage and reduce the environmental impact of our activities.
We are committed to the local economy
We offer employment opportunities to professionals and companies, prioritising the employment of local people and use of local providers.
We share the interests of the community
We support the city’s social and cultural institutions, we put in place measures to reduce noise and emissions and we carry out corporate volunteering activities.
TOWARDS SUSTAINABLE AVIATION
For flights today and in the future, we want cleaner skies. Volotea knows that this is the challenge of our generation and is working for a transition towards an aviation sector that is less polluting and in alignment with the principles of sustainable mobility.
For this reason, we have decided to operate no flight that covers a distance that can be travelled by train in under four hours, and there are no sustainable alternatives taking under six hours to over 90% of our flights.
Usefulness and eco-efficiency
We strive to be our customers’ first choice in terms of environmental responsibility. Most of our flights connect cities that do not have a more eco-efficient alternative.
Reduction and Investment
We constantly seek ways to improve our cost-effectiveness, which results in a reduced, more efficient use of resources. We’re reducing our fuel consumption and investing in aircraft and cabin designs that are lighter and more eco-efficient.
Inspire and support
We collaborate with institutions and the sector to drive new technologies and strategies for more sustainable aviation such as biofuel and electric aircraft development and air traffic control efficiency improvements.
VOLOTEA’S COVID COMMITMENT
At Volotea, we are supporting those people, both within and outside our company, who are suffering most severely from the consequences of the social and public health crisis unleashed by the Covid pandemic. We are working with others to reduce the impact of the crisis on the most vulnerable groups in society.

We donate to non-governmental organisations working to reduce the effects of the pandemic.
-
We undertake corporate social responsibility projects relating to this social and public health crisis.
-
We are putting in place special provisions for health professionals to thank them for their tremendous work.
