Starting a fuel efficiency program is a challenging project: from setting up your fuel team to choosing a fuel efficiency tool to better monitor and improve your fuel results; there are many stakeholders to involve and challenges to overcome.
The implementation of a Fuel Efficiency Management...
Pilots are among the main actors to improve fuel efficiency since they are the one in commands when executing the flight.
That’s why this new series of articles focus on tips and tricks for fuel-saving best practices such as Continuous Descent Approach (CDA) or Engine-Out Taxi In.
In this...
Flight trajectories data is a gold mine for optimizing airline operations.
Indeed, many savings opportunities are possible for airlines around trajectories, such as:
Starting a fuel efficiency program is a huge project: from setting up your fuel team to choosing the right fuel efficiency tool to better monitor and measure your fuel results.
Setting up your fuel team is often the first step, but a successful fuel efficiency program can be effective only when all related staff work together and are fully engaged.
Fuel continues to be the number one cost for any airline, representing more than 30% of the total costs in most cases.
The good news is that fuel cost does not just depend on fuel price but also fuel efficiency. And when it comes to fuel efficiency, pilots are...
Put pilots at the center of your fuel efficiency program
In a previous blog article "How earning pilot trust can improve your airline efficiency", we explained that engaging pilots and earning their trust could be very rewarding:
We would dare to say that putting a fuel efficiency program in place without putting pilots at the center and working hard to earn their trust is doomed with failure.
Of course, a fuel efficiency program should be holistic and look at areas of improvement, not just in Flight Operations but in...
Starting a fuel efficiency program is a challenging project: from setting up your fuel team to choosing a fuel efficiency tool to better monitor and measure your fuel results; there are many stakeholders to involve and challenges to overcome.
That’s why we wanted to share with you 4 key...
Fuel efficiency depends on many criteria. One of the most important is weight: the more weight you add on an aircraft, the more fuel you need to fly it.
The link between aircraft weight variations and fuel consumption is called the cost of weight. If the use of this indicator is not that clear...
