4AIR, a leader in business aviation sustainability, announced that it has verified more than 100 locations worldwide offering Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). The locations are listed on its interactive “Where to Find SAF” map, now accessible via its website and Aviation International News (AIN) Online. This map helps operators locate SAF supply points globally, supporting the industry’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions.
Since its launch in 2021, the map has expanded rapidly. Initially, fewer than 20 locations were listed. By the end of the first quarter of 2024, the total reached 114. These sites are spread across 92 airports, with 47 in the US, 43 in Europe, and a handful in Asia and the Middle East. About 50 locations added SAF in 2024, including 15 in the first quarter alone.
Kennedy Ricci, president of 4AIR, called the expansion an important milestone. He emphasized that increased SAF availability makes decarbonization solutions more accessible for aircraft operators. Ricci added that tools like the SAF map and the Assure SAF Registry aim to encourage industry-wide adoption of sustainable fuels.
The Assure SAF Registry helps operators track and verify their SAF consumption. Proper documentation supports environmental claims and regulatory compliance. Nancy Bsales, COO of 4AIR, highlighted the rapid growth of SAF sites. She noted the industry’s strong commitment to reducing emissions and fostering sustainability.
Industry leaders expressed support for SAF adoption. Scott Cutshall of Clay Lacy said SAF is one of the most impactful ways to cut industry emissions. Beatrice Batty of Signature Aviation discussed efforts to build a comprehensive SAF supply chain in private aviation.
C.R. Sincock of Avfuel pointed out their long-term investments in sustainable fuels, including SAF. He emphasized their role in providing greener options for operators. Overall, the industry’s progress reflects a shared commitment to achieving a more sustainable future for business aviation.
