New figures have revealed that 40,000 ghost planes — planes that fly with less than 10% of passengers — took off or landed in the UK since 2019, with an average of 130 flights a month having no passengers on at all.

Campaigners have called these flights “a vast waste of money and a needless source of emissions”.

“Following a summer of record-breaking, runway-melting heat, this wanton waste of carbon by airlines flies in the face of those feeling the full brunt of our warming world,” says Alethea Warrington, at climate charity Possible.

Airlines do not publish information about why these flights happen, prompting campaigners to call for more transparency to understand why these “inefficient, polluting practices” continue, and to hold the main airline culprits to account.
