Amsterdam–London: emissions in context
~50 kg
Economy CO₂
Per passenger, one way. Calculated using ICAO v13.1 with fleet-average aircraft for the 370 km route.
238 km
Car equivalent
Driving a petrol car alone at EU average emissions (0.21 kg CO₂/km). The AMS–LHR flight emits the same as this many kilometres driven.

Tree absorption
Years of CO₂ absorption by a mature tree to offset one economy passenger's share of a AMS–LHR flight.
About the Amsterdam–London route
The AMS–LHR route covers approximately 370 km great-circle distance between Amsterdam Schiphol in Netherlands and London Heathrow in United Kingdom. In economy class, each passenger is responsible for approximately 50 kg CO₂ per flight direction, or 100 kg for a round trip — calculated using the ICAO Carbon Emissions Calculator v13.1 methodology with fleet-average aircraft and typical load factors.
Business class passengers on the same route emit approximately 175 kg CO₂ per direction — roughly 3.5× more than economy — due to the larger floor area allocated to each business class seat. The climate impact is further amplified by a Radiative Forcing Index (RFI) of 1.9×, which accounts for non-CO₂ effects of aviation at cruising altitude including contrail formation and NOₓ emissions.
