Flying during the day rather than at night is also more beneficial for the environment. This is because condensation trails, which are produced during the flight, are less harmful to the atmosphere during daytime flights then those at night. Whilst you can also choose an airline that has a modern fleet, such as British Airways, to make your journey more environmentally friendly. This is due to the technology being more efficient which, as a result, produces fewer emissions.
