Friday Quickie: Fly Direct

Hey readers, have any exciting spring or summer travel plans coming up?

If you’re flying and can manage it financially try to fly direct. Layovers in your itinerary can add miles to your carbon footprint. When you take one flight as opposed to hopping on a few to reach your final destination you’ll help save excess emissions. (Plus, you usually arrive feeling a little less frazzled and your luggage is less likely to go missing.)

When this just isn’t possible – financially or logistically (flying direct internationally is often tough) – be sure to be aware of your impact while vacationing.
