Data culture at Cebu Pacific

The goal of implementing SkyBreathe® was to embed fuel-efficient flight techniques into daily operations by using accurate flight-data analytics, benchmarking, and continuous pilot feedback without compromising safety, compliance, or operational flexibility. 

"By giving pilots clear data, consistent feedback, and confidence in flight planning, fuel efficiency becomes part of normal operations rather than an imposed constraint."
