Fuel consumption per 100 passenger-kilometres: 3.88 litres (2009)
Greenhouse gas emissions
Total CO2 emissions: 3.83 million metric tonnes (2009)
CO2 emissions per 100 passenger-kilometre (2009): 9.78 kg

Modern aircraft
Average age of the SWISS fleet (as of 31 Dec. 2009): 10.8 years
Ever quieter
Aircraft noise emissions: All SWISS aircraft produce at least 10 percent less noise than the ICAO's latest limit (Chapter 4)
Noise emissions at Zurich Airport: Around two-thirds of the area heavily affected by noise around Zurich Airport has been eliminated in the past 20 years – despite an increase of roughly 50 percent in the number of aircraft movements
SWISS has ordered regional aircraft (to be put into service starting in 2014) that are 15-20 dB quieter than today's Avro RJ100
