In 2025, overseas residents spent an estimated £29.8 billion in the UK. In the same year UK residents spent an estimated £86.3 billion abroad. The net deficit was £56.5 billion. That's £56.5 billion lost to the UK in a single year.

At Flight Free UK we challenge people to take a year off flying, or to make a custom pledge that suits their personal circumstances.

Train travel is a more rewarding alternative to flying which reduces our contribution to climate change and brings us closer to the countries we visit.

Say no to airport expansion! More flights mean more emissions, more noise pollution, and more air pollution. In response to the climate crisis, we should be reducing flight levels, for the health of local residents, the wider UK and global community, and for planetary health.
