Aviation: Alternative Fuels
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, pursuant to the answer of 15 June 2026 to Question 7033, what estimate was made of the increase in the cost of an average package holiday attributable to Sustainable Aviation Fuel Mandate compliance costs.
Answered by Keir Mather
An assessment of the costs of SAF policies and the impact on air fares was conducted as part of the published SAF Mandate cost-benefit analysis. There has not been an assessment of the impact on holiday package prices.
The Sustainable Aviation Fuel Cost Benefit is available at: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/66601969dc15efdddf1a872d/uk-saf-mandate-final-stage-cost-benefit-analysis.pdf, see section 4 for ticket price impacts.
