In mainland China, Trip.com Group’s sub-brand Ctrip has been working with suppliers to offer a wide variety of eco-friendly travel products, such as zero waste camping and eco hiking.
Trip.Biz, a corporate travel brand of the Group, has recently conducted a campaign to promote “Green Hotels” and “Green Flights” in mainland China.
In 2021, Trip.com Group established its ESG Committee and joined the UN Global Compact.
Jane Sun, Trip.com Group CEO said, “We will work with our users and partners to further reduce carbon emissions in a more holistic and systematic manner.”
Trip.com surveyed its customers to learn more about user sentiment towards sustainable travel.
The survey revealed that travelling sustainably is essential to most.
