The first Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport (MSP) flight departure fueled by Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) takes to the skies. Montana Renewables, the largest SAF producer in North America (2024), provided MSP with its first shipment of 7,000 gallons of SAF made from Minnesota-grown winter camelina. Montana Renewables produced and blended the SAF; Shell Aviation shipped it to MSP; and Delta Air Lines has designated flight 2732 from MSP to New York (LGA) as the symbolic first SAF-fueled departure.

"Supplying the SAF to MSP marks another significant milestone in the decarbonization of air travel," said Bruce Fleming, CEO, Montana Renewables. "Not only does it bring SAF to Minnesota flights, but we are especially pleased to pioneer camelina oil as a non-food renewable that provides additional cash crop potential for farmers."

MRL thanks Shell Aviation, the Minnesota SAF Hub, and many others who collaborated to bring SAF to MSP.
