Sustainability at Belfast City Airport

As an airport providing vital connectivity to the UK and Europe for both business and leisure passengers, we know the value we add to the regional economy, but we also recognise the environmental impacts our operations can have on those around us.

We have developed initiatives and programmes that have allowed us to invest in people across Belfast and beyond, support and protect our environment, enrich our local communities, and inspire the next generation through education. This impressive track record has earned us multiple awards, accolades, and recognition as a national leader in responsible business practice.

However, whilst we are confident we have been doing ‘enough’ to minimise any consequences of our operations, we are not complacent and know we can always do more – that is the catalyst behind our new Sustainability Strategy.
