Thank you all for your replies. As an organisation we reduce and partly offset our carbon in general, so we wouldn’t pay a third party for this particular flight - it would just disappear into the annual figure. I just wondered if I could use a particular airline or route that might be x% less than average as part of the business case.
I completely agree with
PAXboy about face to face meetings and networking - this is all standard standard activity for me in the UK, and wouldn’t even need approval, I’d just do it. It is just the international element (esp. air travel) that need special approval.
thanks again,
Sam
