Phenix Jet Group has completed its first international business jet flight outbound from Japan using “SUSTEO,” a sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) brand manufactured and sold in Japan by Euglena Co., Ltd. The aircraft departed from Tokyo’s Narita International Airport on Friday, September 30th, 2022. Phenix Jet celebrates this flight as its inaugural international business jet flight departing from Japan using sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) produced in Japan.

Sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) results in reduced CO2 emissions compared with traditional jet fuels, and this biofuel is expected to greatly contribute to the realization of a decarbonized society in the coming years. Euglena’s “SUSTEO” is a SAF brand manufactured from raw materials such as used cooking oil and microalgae, which is mixed with traditional fossil jet fuel to create a more eco-friendly fuel.

Phenix Jet will continue to seek new opportunities to utilize SAF biofuel in its business jet operations moving forward with the aim of reducing CO2 emissions through its business activities.
