Cathay Pacific and Google have expanded their artificial intelligence trials targeting the reduction of aircraft contrail formation as of early September 2026. The collaboration uses AI technology to address contrails that contribute to climate warming.

These expanded trials focus on lowering the environmental impact associated with contrails generated during flights. The initiative was active and ongoing by September 7, 2026.
