... how Lufthansa saved tons of kerosene?
187,000 is the number of tons of kerosene that Lufthansa was able to save in 2007 – thanks to intelligent airline software. The Lido/Flight flight planning system from Lufthansa Systems, for example, calculates the optimum route based on the weather, load, airspace situation and other factors. As a result, a flight from Frankfurt to Chicago consumes up to four fewer tons of kerosene and thus emits twelve fewer tons of carbion dioxide. Lufthansa reduced its carbon dioxide emissions by a total of 590,000 tons in 2007, which corresponds to the kerosene required for 1,800 flights from Frankfurt to San Francisco.
