Chooose integrates IATA CO2 Connect emissions data

The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has signed an agreement with Chooose to expand market access to IATA CO2 Connect emissions data.

Airlines managing SAF programs via the Chooose platform can now deliver IATA CO2 Connect’s data directly to their corporate and consumer travel customers.

Data is based on real operational inputs from over 70 airlines and aligned with IATA RP 1726 and ISO 14083. 

IATA CO2 Connect enables flight-specific emissions estimates using actual aircraft performance data and can account for SAF-related reductions.

The recent alignment with ISO 14083 reinforces its role as a standard for measuring CO2 emissions across both passenger and cargo transport.

IATA research conducted in April 2025 revealed that 40% of travellers, especially business travellers, regularly check their flight-related carbon emissions.

By delivering CO2 Connect data through its platform, Chooose helps airlines and corporate partners meet the demand for transparency, while enabling more informed choices.

Chooose’s global airline partners now also have the option of incorporating IATA CO2 Connect emissions data into their emissions calculations.

Joseph Beaudin, Chooose CEO, said: “For years, Chooose has supported airlines, cargo and travel companies with flexible access to emissions estimates to enable their SAF programmes and customer-facing applications. The addition of IATA CO2 Connect gives our partners access to an IATA dataset that continuously improves as more airlines report operational inputs and SAF usage.”

Frederic Leger, IATA’s SVP Commercial Products & Services, said: “IATA CO2 Connect is the only carbon calculator for travel emissions that is based on airline operational data. We want IATA CO2 Connect data to be as broadly available as possible so that those who are managing travel can do their work with the most accurate information. Working with Chooose is a key part of that strategy.”
