Not saying they shouldn't do this, but it's So ironic that a nation which tops the list for its own disappearance (due to ocean-rise) would also host a luxury airline with a much higher carbon footprint than a "normal" airline. The human race keeps shooting itself in the foot!

The carbon footprint of an airline is not going to affect ocean rise. Remember - wherever it is you are standing right now was once covered by 150 or more feet of solid ice - long before aircraft, or even humans. Planetary evolution & lifecycle. It's a thing.
