Travel with Purpose: Tips On How to Travel More Sustainability

Spending your holidays close to home is a great way to travel meaningfully while reducing your environmental impact. By exploring nearby destinations, you minimize carbon emissions associated with long-haul flights and extended travel. Staying local allows you to discover hidden gems, support regional businesses, and immerse yourself in the culture and nature of your own region. It's an opportunity to reconnect with your environment and create memorable experiences.

Extending the duration of your holidays is a simple yet effective way to make your travels more responsible. Longer stays allow you to immerse yourself in the local culture, reduce the frequency of long-haul flights, and decrease carbon emissions per day spent at your destination. By choosing a single destination and exploring it in depth, you support the local economy, reduce transport-related emissions, and create more authentic connections.

At Club Med, we offer extended stay options with our Combo offers. Why not discover Mauritius or the Maldives by staying in two of our Resorts within the same destination, or extend the experience by visiting two of our ski resorts?

You could also opt for a city stopover or explore neighboring cities. Or even combine work and vacation.

Traveling more slowly and staying longer transforms your holidays into a richer and more responsible experience for you and the planet.

Choosing the right airline is essential for responsible travel. Airlines vary in their commitment to reducing their environmental impact, with some investing in fuel-efficient aircraft and more responsible aviation fuels.

By researching different airlines, you can prioritize those that share your values and actively work to reduce carbon emissions. Supporting these airlines not only reduces your carbon footprint but also encourages the industry to adopt more responsible practices.

There are many ways to reduce your carbon footprint: traveling closer, staying longer, or choosing fewer polluting modes of transport. But to go even further, you can offset the remaining emissions by investing in carbon offset projects.

Through these programs and tools, you can estimate the environmental impact of your travels and evaluate the amount of carbon credits needed to offset your impact elsewhere. These credits fund projects that, depending on their nature, either prevent additional emissions into the atmosphere or capture existing carbon.
