It provides a series of recommended actions that can reduce their total fuel consumption by up to 5%. Maintenance engineers, dispatchers, pilots, and fuel managers can all track various green operation procedures and work hand in hand to achieve better performances.
With the determination to go even further, Viva Aerobus has chosen to involve all its pilots by giving them access to SkyBreathe® MyFuelCoach. This application enables them to see their individual performance. Pilots can see timely insights into fuel usage to make more data-driven decisions and minimize fuel consumption and CO2 emissions on their flights.
“The SkyBreathe® software helps us improve our overall fuel management program. Since the app’s opening to pilots, they are much more aware of their fuel performance and how they can improve, and we’ve already observed interesting progress. We believe involving most of our teams will help us achieve significant fuel savings and lower our carbon footprint. We’re confident that these tools will support our growth effectively while developing a stronger fuel-conscious culture across the airline. We all embrace the goal to reduce our carbon footprint”, said Juan Carlos Zuazua – CEO of Viva Aerobus.

The 5 key benefits of Flight Operations Software
Data collection and Analysis
As we move into 2023 and beyond, data is fast becoming the lifeblood of many global industries. With aviation being no exception, data-centric trends are fuelling a wide range of operational and strategic decisions that can make or break an airline’s success. By harnessing the power of data collection and analysis airlines can optimise their operations, enhance customer satisfaction, and soar above the competition.
Flight operation software acts as a data powerhouse, recording, processing, and storing information in a central database. This helps airlines to monitor and optimise everything from flight schedules and fuel consumption to maintenance schedules and crew management. In short, having quality data collection and analysis at their fingertips will allow airlines to streamline their operations and stay ahead of the curve in an increasingly digital world.
Enhanced Connectivity
Effective and timely communication is the backbone of any successful team, especially in the fast-paced world of airline flight operations. With so many departments working together simultaneously, efficient communication is essential.
Flight ops software connects these departments in real-time allowing data to flow seamlessly, saving time, and allowing all team members to access the critical data they need, precisely when they need it.
For example, flight schedulers can create a flight plan which is then sent to the dispatcher for approval. Schedulers create a flight plan to which dispatchers get instant access allowing them to monitor flights ahead of time. Once the flight is approved, the crew are scheduled and automatically updated on their schedule and duties and the necessary flight services are added. With all the data securely processed and stored, relevant parties can access the information needed with just a few clicks.
Safety & Compliance
For airlines, maintaining standards and adhering to regulations can be a challenge. It’s a difficult task that requires a significant amount of time and coordination across multiple departments, not to mention the added complexity for airlines with international operations. With so many moving parts, ensuring that safety and compliance standards are met is no small feat.
One of the main issues with paper-based systems is that valuable information and data are locked away in storage, making it difficult to analyse. This leads to laborious audits and makes carrying out analytical reports a painstaking process. Flight Ops software suites can offer a centralised and easily accessible database for all critical business information which streamline these processes. Thus, allowing you to identify errors and inefficiencies while highlighting trends in the data to build predictive systems and optimize many areas of your operations.
Another way the software can help with compliance is by keeping track of all checks and revalidations. Airlines can help their teams to keep track of all required certifications, training, and revalidations and notify them of any upcoming expiries to ensure that you stay compliant and avoid shortages.
Optimise for Efficiency
We’ve discussed how flight ops software can enhance efficiency through seamless communications and connectivity, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. The real power of these software suites is in their ability to analyse data and turn it into actionable insights. By creating a centralised database that can be easily searched, management can dive deep into the details and pinpoint precisely the issues affecting performance and profitability. With a clearer understanding of the issues at hand, leaders can make better-informed decisions to drive positive change.
The software can also be configured to automate and optimise processes within certain departments. Take sales for example, the software automatically pulls data from different departments to calculate variables such as distance, flight times, fuel usage, charges, and more to generate quotes that ensure profitability all in a matter of seconds.
Convenience
Repetitive, time-intensive tasks, like data entry and processing are streamlined, reducing the chance for human error and freeing up time for more important tasks.
With companion apps for crew schedules and documentation, your flight crew stay up to date on their schedules, hotel bookings, and leave requests, even when on the move. Dispatchers get an overview of the entire operational status, making it simple to manage airport slots, flight status, checklists, and arrival services while schedulers can visualise the entire fleet in real time allowing them to deduce free capacity and optimise planning.
From improving operational efficiency, ensuring compliance, and providing real-time data and analytics, the advantages of flight ops software are clear. By leveraging these tools, companies can streamline their operations, enhance decision-making, and ultimately provide better services to their customers. With the constantly evolving technological landscape, it is essential for aviation companies to embrace these solutions to stay competitive in an industry fast undergoing its own digital transformation.
Luxair selects StorkJet’s fuel efficiency software to reduce CO2 emissions
Conscious of the impact of its activities on the environment, Luxair has taken an additional step in its journey towards carbon neutrality by launching a new partnership with StorkJet, which provides a convenient, reliable and precise tool for flight optimisation, to reduce its environmental footprint and promote a greener aviation.

By announcing its cooperation with the Polish company, StorkJet, specialized in aircraft performance and fuel efficiency, Luxair, for whom sustainability is a priority to be achieved, strengthens its development in the most sustainable and efficient spirit. Indeed, thanks to artificial intelligence, StorkJet developed a pool of software able to identify the saving opportunities for airlines, allowing them to optimize their operations. Through its partnership, Luxair chose to optimize both Boeing 737 and Dash 8 fleet with a package including 3 programs: AdvancedAPM, FuelPro and FlyGuide, which will help the airline achieve its support to the promise of “Net-Zero carbon emissions by 2050”, submitted by IATA (International Air Transport Association) in October 2021.

AdvancedAPM is an aircraft performance monitoring tool which will help to encompass the fuel planning policy for each aircraft (including Boeing 737 and Dash 8) and for each flight, by providing key indicators about the fleet performance degradation. In this way, Luxair will not only be able to fly more efficiently, but will also increase the level of safety offered to its customers.

Added to this performance software, Luxair will also use FuelPro, a fuel consumption monitoring tool, that emphasizes several fuel initiatives related to all phases of a flight: flight planning, taxi, take-off, climb, cruise, descent and landing. Thanks to the analysis of all flights performed, Luxair will optimize its operations and dispatch efficiently its fleet of 19 aircrafts, which will soon be completed by two new Boeing 737-8 aircraft to be delivered in first quarter 2026. Meanwhile, as a bride solution, Luxair will temporarily lease from Boeing two other 37-8 which will be operated by its own crews, until the delivery of new aircraft. With FuelPro, Luxair can optimize also flight speeds and altitudes for Dash 8 fleet, which is an innovation offered only by StorkJet.

As part of the next step of the partnership, StorkJet will provide the FlyGuide app, where the pilots will be able to analyze their own flights and highlight the improvement axis for fuel savings. As the first actors directly involved in fuel consumption are the pilots, FlyGuide will help Luxair connect efficiency matters to those who directly master the fuel consumption, thus introducing awareness at the core of the process.
“The future of our company and of aviation rely on our capability to maximize environmental efficiency, dealing with the appearing stakes of our time. Flying in the most responsible mind-set depicts the most important of these new stakes, in which Luxair dedicates the highest means. Alongside StorkJet, Luxair is proud to be a part of a global involvement for a more environmentally friendly future.” said Gilles Feith, Luxair CEO.
“We’re thrilled to work with Luxair to provide our expertise and data-driven insights to optimize their fuel usage and enhance their overall operational efficiency. This partnership is a proof of the effectiveness of our technology and our commitment to creating sustainable solutions for the aviation industry.” said Renata Niedziela, StorkJet CEO.

Decarbonizing Aviation Mission Possible: a new book tackling aviation’s greatest challenge

OpenAirlines and the GreenPilot movement are publishing “Decarbonizing Aviation Mission Possible,” a must-read book for all industry professionals and air travel enthusiasts interested in learning more about the challenges and solutions to decarbonize the aviation sector. Click here to download your free copy!
Reducing the carbon impact of aviation is at the heart of OpenAirlines’ mission. Every day, we put our hearts into helping airlines to reduce their fuel consumption with our eco-flying solution SkyBreathe® adopted by 56 airlines today. Last year, we helped our customers prevent 1,026,000 tons of CO2 from going into the atmosphere and save 325,600 tons of fuel thanks to digital technology!
Despite being significant figures, these numbers only account for a small fraction of the aviation sector’s total carbon emissions, which make up 2-3% of global CO2 emissions. We know that improving operations is only a part of the solution, and it will take a collective effort from the industry to reach our goal of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. That’s why in 2018, we launched the Green Pilot movement, a global community of pilots, aviation professionals, and airlines uniting to promote sustainable aviation.
Today, driven by the urgency to act in the face of climate change, we publish the book “Decarbonizing Aviation Mission Possible.” Written by Alexandre Feray, OpenAirlines’ founder & CEO, this educational resource overviews the latest technologies, policies, and initiatives aimed at decarbonizing the aviation sector. From biofuels to hydrogen aircraft, the book explores the different pathways to stop aviation’s carbon dependency with a mix of short and long-term solutions.
Convinced that we must put our heads together to succeed, we called on top industry experts to take part in the project. Coming from various organizations that lead the charge in sustainable aviation, including ZeroAvia, Air France, Carbone 4, Eurocontrol, and the Solar Impulse Foundation, to name a few, they offer a unique perspective on the most effective ways to reduce emissions.
The Decarbonizing Aviation Mission Possible ebook is available now.
