IATA launched CO2 Connect in June 2022, with the aim of using member airline data, such as fuel consumption, hold load and occupancy factors, to provide high-quality estimates of CO2 emissions per passenger flight.

Combined with data from IATA and the open data marketplace, CO2 Connect calculates CO2 emissions from 74 aircraft types, representing approximately 98% of the global operational passenger fleet, and examines traffic data from 881 air operators representing around 93% of global air travel.

The International Air Transport Association and the oneworld alliance have joined forces to work together in the field of CO2 emissions calculations. Oneworld members include Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Finnair, Iberia, Japan Airlines, Malaysia Airlines, Qatar Airways, Qantas, Royal Air Maroc, Royal Jordanian and SriLankan Airlines.
