Heathrow Airport launches renewable biofuel breakfast!


Europe's busiest airport - Heathrow - has introduced a full English breakfast using only British ingredients - which is cooked with oil that is then recycled into renewable biofuels.

In conjunction with celebrity multi-Michelin-star-winning chef - Heston Blumenthal -  "The Fly Up" is available now at Terminal 2's The Perfectionists' Café.

The GBP 15.95 breakfast is aimed to increase understanding of SAF - sustainable aviation fuel  - as it plays a key role in hitting Net Zero by 2050.
