ITA Airways publishes only intensity-based emissions reductions while absolute figures remain undisclosed—a critical gap as fleet and traffic grow. The airline lacks Scope 3 data, credible climate targets (SBTi commitment lapsed), and SAF uptake verification. Offset marketing mirrors the greenwashing patterns ClientEarth flagged across European carriers.
