New Zealand's national airline is trialing a new innovation in the fight against waste - edible coffee cups.
Air New Zealand has teamed up with a local company called Twiice, which produces the biscotti cups.
The company says that the cups are leak proof - important if you are enjoying a hot drink at 30,000 feet - while they also claim the vanilla flavour of the biscuit complements the coffee.
When the coffee, or tea, is gone, passengers can then eat the cup.
For those with a sweet tooth, Twiice has said they are also planning to introduce a chocolate-lined cup.
The move to the biscuit cup is part of a move by Air New Zealand to tackle the amount of single-use plastics used on its flights, which had previously seen the airline begin using cups made from plant-based materials earlier this year.
However, Air New Zealand Senior Manager Customer Experience Niki Chave said the ultimate goal was to remove these totally from landfills.
The cups have been a big hit with the customers who have used these and we've also been using the cups as dessert bowls," Ms Chave said.
The airline has also started using recycled water bottles and is encouraging customers to bring their own reusable cups on board aircraft and into its lounges..
