I'm guessing this results in even higher CO2 emissions per passenger...

Yes, though jet fuel has a sustainable, carbon neutral alternative. If/when they can get the cost down, air travel is one of the few places that burning fossil fuels makes sense. The energy density of jet fuel is just too good. Batteries are too heavy, hydrogen is basically impossible to store.
Carbon capture can handle some CO2, but the wanton waste that characterized the 20th century is unsustainable.
