Car equivalent
Driving a petrol car alone at EU average emissions (0.21 kg CO₂/km). The LHR–YYZ flight emits the same as this many kilometres driven.

About the London–Toronto route
The LHR–YYZ route covers approximately 5,710 km great-circle distance between London Heathrow in United Kingdom and Toronto Pearson International in Canada. In economy class, each passenger is responsible for approximately 514 kg CO₂ per flight direction, or 1,028 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 1,799 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.
