20 Mar 2024 Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij N.V. (KLM)Amsterdam District Court: KLM advertising on sustainable flying misleading Other
In a collective action brought by the Fossielvrij foundation, the Amsterdam District Court (Rechtbank Amsterdam) found that 15 KLM advertising claims were misleading and unlawful: they suggested sustainable flying or that offsetting products actually compensate for the climate impact, although biofuels and reforestation reduce it only marginally. KLM bears the costs of the proceedings; further claims were dismissed (ECLI:NL:RBAMS:2024:1512).
Offsetting and SAF offerings must not create the impression of climate-neutral travel; associations can challenge such claims in court.
