Sustainability

At Obsidian our profound passion for aviation is rivaled only by our unwavering commitment to environmental stewardship. Recognising that private flying fosters unparalleled global connectivity beyond the reach of commercial aviation, we also acknowledge the environmental impact that accompanies each flight. Thus, sustainability stands as an intrinsic cornerstone of our ethos, driving our unwavering efforts to minimise our carbon footprint and embed eco-consciousness firmly within our organisational DNA.

We care

We Are Facing the Climate Challenges Climate change is real, and mobility providers around the world are challenged to become part of the solution. At Obsidian, sustainability has been part of our DNA since day one. We openly share our latest thinking on sustainability, welcome and value challenging perspectives, and keep the responsibility we carry at the forefront of every business decision we make.

We believe in innovation

Innovation Ensures a Green Future for Private Aviation At Obsidian, we recognize the responsibility we all share toward protecting our planet. While private aviation (on a per-passenger basis) generates higher emissions than commercial flights, we believe that ongoing advancements in sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) will pave the way for a more sustainable future—one that meets the growing demand for private jet travel without compromising environmental responsibility.

Our sustainability commitment

This Is What We Do Obsidian has partnered with 4Air to offer our clients four distinct levels of sustainability commitment: Carbon Neutral 100% carbon dioxide offsets to neutralize CO₂ emissions. Emissions Neutral 300% carbon dioxide offsets to account for both CO₂ and non-CO₂ effects. Beyond Neutral 5% direct emissions reduction through the use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). Climate Champion Contributions made to the Aviation Climate Fund to support long-term climate solutions.

Let‘s rethink how we fuel our jets

Sustainable Aviation Fuel

At Obsidian, we believe Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAFs) are the gateway to a cleaner, more environmentally conscious future in private aviation. Unlike traditional fossil fuels, SAFs are produced from sustainable sources—offering a significantly reduced carbon footprint without sacrificing speed, comfort, or safety.

Today, it is already possible to cross the Atlantic using non-fossil fuels, proving that high-performance and eco-conscious travel can go hand in hand. With continued innovation, research, and commitment from the global private aviation community, SAFs are set to become the standard—bringing us one step closer to a truly sustainable sky.

Let every journey with Obsidian mark a new chapter in responsible, refined travel.
