Sustainability

Here at American Holidays, we believe in the transformative power of travel.
We believe travel builds perspective, understanding, education and can empower communities and individuals alike.

We have set out sustainable standards we strive to live by and work with others who are committed to sustainability and responsible travel practices. We recognize cross-sector collaboration is vital and support global initiatives across the travel, hospitality, and transport sectors to reduce the environmental impact.

We are embedding a range of global minimum sustainability standards that include ethical treatment of animals, green offices, reduction of single-use plastic and waste to landfill, safe and fair labour conditions, and the ethical and sustainable contracting of accommodation.

We believe in the transformative power of travel and aim to leave a positive impact on our destinations.
At American Holidays we are driven by travel's potential for good; and being part of diverse portfolio of travel businesses we are unified in a common purpose 'To enrich lives through inspiring travel experiences", for our customers and the people and places we visit.

Our commitment to sustainable travel. Our sustainable travel operational standards ensure the way in which our trips are operated eliminates or reduces any negative impacts on our destinations and seeks to increase positive impacts for people and places. Closer to home, our sustainable workplace policy drives to act responsibly in our places of work.

Environmental Protection. We recognise the urgent nature of the climate and biodiversity crisis we face, and the aspects of tourism are currently contributing to both. We commit to playing our part in reducing these and seeking ways in which we can contribute to the solutions required.

Our commitment to carbon reporting, reduction and mitigation. We are measuring the carbon emissions of our offices and operations and developing a de-carbonisation plan in line with the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change's (IPCC) carbon reduction goals. Additionally, we are developing plans to support the restoration of the natural landscapes we need to tackle climate change.
