OUR STRATEGY
HOW WE TREAD RIGHT
At TTC, we lead by example and aim to tread right in all that we do. Our TreadRight Foundation has been working since 2008 to reduce the environmental impact of our business, and in 2013 our first Corporate Social Responsibility strategy was implemented. Since then we’ve grown into a purpose-driven company where everyone – our employees, partners, suppliers and guests – clearly sees their role to make travel matter.
Our Pledge
To Make Travel Matter
Our carbon footprint
Alongside all members of the World Travel & Tourism Council, we’ve committed to becoming carbon neutral by 2050, and now we are embarking on our journey to do so. More than that, we will determine how to make this happen sooner than 2050.
Single-Use plastics
In 2018, we committed to eliminating as many unnecessary single-use plastics as possible from our offices and operations by the close of 2022. Since then, our teams removed more than 60 types of single-use plastic items. For example, we’ve eliminated all name tags, introduced a new reusable luggage tag made from recycled materials for all our brands and eliminated the sale of single-use plastic water bottles on all our motorcoaches.

E-Documents
Since 2017, we have given travel advisors and guests the opportunity to have their travel documents sent to them electronically in partnership with One Tree Planted. When someone chooses e-documents, we plant a tree in their name. Through this initiative, over 500 acres of forest and counting have been restored.
Animal Welfare
As part of our continuing journey to ensure the environment and communities we visit remain vibrant for generations to come, TTC’s Animal Welfare Policy helps us to ensure that all experiences offered by our family of brands meet globally recognized animal welfare criteria.
