Azul Linheas Aereas, Brazil's largest carrier by daily departures, faced a key challenge: engaging pilots in fuel optimization. To address this, they needed a tool that provided accurate data and actionable insights that lead to progress, allowing pilots to learn and improve.
Azul required a user-friendly solution that not only tracked fuel efficiency but also motivated pilots to adopt fuel-saving practices. The system needed to deliver clear, personalized recommendations to help pilots improve their performance and drive fuel efficiency across the airline.
Listen to Caio Garcia, Captain, Flight Ops Engineering Manager, and Fuel Efficiency Manager at Azul Linhas Aéreas, share is journey to engage pilots.
“SkyBreathe®MyFuelCoach was one of the primary reasons we chose SkyBreathe®, as it played a crucial role in achieving our goals. It has been a game-changer for pilot engagement, along with advanced analytics”
Our goal is to make our operations more efficient and more fuel-conscious as we continue to progress.
We expected that the pilots would receive a better feedback on their fuel efficicency performance and hoped it would lead to greater overall fuel savings.
It’s important to listen to them and understand what information may not be well transmitted or fully understood. In case of any misunderstanding, it’s important to address it quickly. It’s also key to provide positive feedback to encourage them in their journey.
We've been partnering with OpenAirlines for a year now. During this time, we have been able to adjust the tool to our need. We have found OpenAirlines to be a good work partner.
The community itself is a valuable ressource. It's growing and it includes a diverse variety of airlines and operations. Their is a lot to learn from them. Being part a that community brings a lot of value.
💡Azul Pilots' preferred feature in SkyBreathe® MyFuelCoach “One of the most popular features, however, is the map that visually represents how the pilot configured the aircraft. This is similar to what you would see in a Flight Operations Quality Assurance (FOQA) system, but with the added benefit of showing the pilot areas where they could have configured the aircraft more efficiently.” - Caio Garcia |
