09 May 2022 --- Dutch flag carrier KLM has trialed Garçon Wines spin-off Packamama’s eco-flat bottle on board two flights leaving from Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. The move comes as part of a broader KLM employee initiative called the Sustainable Flight Challenge, where 16 SkyTeam Airline Alliance members are competing with a view to sharing insight and experience on improved environmental sustainability in the airline industry. Packamama says its eco-flat bottle is 87% lighter and 40% spatially smaller than conventional glass wine bottles, making them ideally suited for use in the cabin, where space is at a premium and weight savings are beneficial to help reduce fuel consumption.
