Viaggiare in Giordania

With the aim of reducing barriers and enabling everyone to travel, we have worked on a number of accessibility fronts with the Senza Barriere and Celiac disease projects.

&ldquo;Have you ever thought about how many footprints we leave when we walk on a beach? 
Every time we take a step, we leave a mark and the more we walk, the more the trail lengthens behind us. 
Who helps us erase our passage? The waves of the sea.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Maybe, you do not fully understand the meaning of this image. It is sufficient to say that it has a lot to do with our relationship with the environment and our sensitivity towards the world and its inhabitants. &nbsp;

&nbsp;

And who cares more than us about our planet? We have made the Earth our stage, love it in every corner, nuance and country, have been thrilled for 75 years by new routes, new destinations and new adventures that we can give you, happy to see millions of people happy for the continuous discovery of the infinite beauty of the world. A world that, unfortunately, is fragile, delicate and fully connected to what we do.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

Today, responsibility is the greatest challenge of our time, an unavoidable urgency for everyone: it is a duty, especially for large companies such as ourselves, to pay attention to our own actions, moving towards sustainable business models, so that we can leave our children and future generations a better world than the one we found.&nbsp;

&nbsp;

It is certainly the most challenging, important and beautiful journey we can all take together, but we are honoured to see that all of you are on board with us&rdquo;.

In 2019, anticipating the entry into force of the EU legislation banning single-use plastic, the Group initiated two projects aimed at eliminating single-use plastic from VOIhotels&#39; facilities and Neos&#39; aircraft. The hotel chain managed to eliminate more than 1.1 million plastic items and decided to strengthen its commitment by raising its guests&rsquo; awareness to adopt a systemic solution. Neos too has adopted plastic substitutes for on-board and ground operations, for example by using paper and cardboard.&nbsp;

PLASTIC FREE

Training and educating people - whether employees, guests and customers, families or suppliers - is central to the Group: behaviour and awareness are the main levers for implementing a change in thinking. Activities in this area include the initiative with Giunti Scuola, through which Alpitour reached more than 130,000 primary school children throughout Italy, showing children and their families responsible behaviour through educational activities, information material and a book. VOIhotels has also started a collaboration with Worldrise, an association that protects the marine environment, to promote education about the sea, its specificities and fragility.

GREEN HERO

Since 2018, we have been collaborating with Treedom, a web platform that allows people to plant a tree from a distance and follow it online, with the aim of making each seed germinate until, tree after tree, a luxuriant Alpitour World forest grows in several countries worldwide, including Kenya, Madagascar and Tanzania. A mission shared by several of the Group&#39;s brands and companies and aimed at safeguarding the environment, supporting local populations and giving a trip souvenir to our travellers. Our forest today has more than 4,300 trees planted and the goal is to reach 20,000 in 2024.

THE ALPITOUR WORLD FOREST

In the summer of 2021, VOIhotels initiated a project in collaboration with the company Allegrini Amenities to provide a sustainable, ethical and biodegradable amenities line &ndash; DPLANET - in all the Italian hotels in the collection. It is a solid, water-free, natural-based, dermatologically tested and vegan cosmetic developed to offer hotellerie businesses a viable alternative to traditional soap. VOIhotels was the first hotel chain to adopt the product and carry out analyses on guest satisfaction. This has meant that an average of around 2,800 kg of plastic per year, including bottles, dispensers and jerry-cans, is not released into the environment, as well as reducing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere by 73%. &nbsp;

DPLANET

VOIhotels has started a certification process for its facilities with the Global Sustainable Tourism Council (GSTC) to map and analyse its consumption and adopt a model that meets the GSTC stringent social, economic and environmental requirements. The process started in 2019 and has led VOIhotels to have 13 facilities certified. The certifying body also conducts audits in the central offices and every two years replicates the control actions to confirm or point out areas of improvement against the matrix of sustainability indicators provided for by the GSTC standard.&nbsp;
