Opening Statement

In the pursuit of its mission to provide world class travel, Mayday Travel utilises technologies which are friendly to the
environment. The use of ecommerce and such  communications are often a substitute for paper based
messages, Mayday Travel LTD is contributing positively to
environmental wellbeing and conserving natural resources.

Commitment to Pollution Prevention

We recognise however that in our day - to day operations we inevitably impact on the environment in a number of ways and we wish to minimise the potentially harmful effects of such activity wherever and whenever possible.

Improvement Principle

As part of our continuing drive for quality, in all things we do, we have therefore developed a comprehensive policy statement which will enable us to set targets by which our efforts towards sustainable environmental improvement can be measured and monitored on a regular basis.

Communication to Staff

We have undertaken to help every Mayday Travel person to understand and to implement the relevant aspects of this policy in their day-to-day works through regular communication of objectives, action plans and achievements.

Commitment to Continuous Improvement

At Board level, the Deputy Chairman has specific responsibilities for policy development, coordination and evaluation of performance. Mayday Travel is committed to minimising the impact of its operation on the environment by means of a programme of continuous improvement.
