• Japan is the perfect location for economy and time-zone

Swiss-AS expansion to East Asia

The “Land of the Rising Sun” has just welcomed its first AMOS office in cooperation with Lufthansa Systems. The expansion to East Asia has been approved by the management board of Swiss AviationSoftware and will result in the establishment of a new business location in Tokyo as of October 1st, 2021. The Tokyo office is an extension of the existing Singapore branch and its staff will report to and closely cooperate with the AMOS Asia-Pacific Business Unit.

Why Japan?

The establishment of the new East Asia office in Japan is the result of several factors that make this country the perfect candidate for such an expansion.
Since the opening of our Singapore office in 2013, the APAC customer base has grown by over 400%. Even though Singapore is a key Asian hub, East Asian countries, such as China, Japan, Taiwan and North and South Korea, can be reached more efficiently from the new Tokyo office. The new office location also benefits from a more favourable time zone difference with Oceania.
Secondly, it is safe to say that there are major cultural differences between East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Oceania, which require specific approaches for the different sub-regions. Splitting the responsibility for business development into smaller regional areas allows for a more focused strategy and customer approach, while at the same time fostering the long-term growth of Swiss-AS in the region.

Japan is not only the third largest economy in the world and the forth to sixth largest aviation market (depending on the metric), it is also the sixth largest venture capital investment market in the world with strong government initiatives to accelerate the growth of the aircraft maintenance industry (Okinawa Aviation Industry Cluster) and IT start-ups (Start-up City Fukuoka).

Though the Asian-Pacific region is currently preoccupied with combatting the pandemic, Swiss-AS is convinced that the Asian-Pacific aviation market will again become a driving force in the global aviation market; against this background, we consider our growing presence in the Asian-Pacific market key to our long-term success.

All fuel efficiency solutions to accelerate airlines’ path to reduce CO2 emissions. 

The SkyBreathe® software is now a complete 360° platform that integrates multiple products that have been designed to involve all stakeholders and spread a vibrant green culture in your airline to reduce fuel consumption, CO2 emissions, and costs.

SkyBreathe® is a software that collects all the data from the black boxes, weather, air traffic control, and maintenance. Through Big Data algorithms and Artificial Intelligence, it produces recommendations for airlines and pilots that let them reduce their fuel consumption by up to 5% without any modification of the aircraft and give everyone in an airline the ability to make smarter and faster decisions for a seamless workflow that saves time, increases fuel efficiency and green culture.

This is the ultimate goal of the new SkyBreathe 360° eco-flying platform in which each product is powerful alone and where users can also get the magic by combining them all together. All the integrated products have been thought to involve all stakeholders in the airline’s fuel program to minimize CO2, increase fuel savings, and easily spread green culture.

• With SkyBreathe Analytics: identify fuel-saving opportunities, monitor progress, and take actions through powerful Big Data and AI fuel management software. SkyBreathe Analytics goes with a dedicated native mobile application for pilots: MyFuelCoach. With MyFuelCoach, pilots can access briefing and debriefing valuable information.
• SkyBreathe Advanced Trajectory add-on takes flight analysis to the next level by providing plenty of additional functionalities to identify new savings in trajectories analysis: optimize direct opportunities, analyze routes waypoint by waypoints and improve short approach fuel initiative.
• With SkyBreathe OCC: understand and improve on-time performance. SkyBreathe OCC allows airlines to build and share key metrics, investigate root causes and understand reactionary delays.
• And airlines can go further in building a new future for greener aviation by getting SkyBreathe OnBoard, and engaging pilots at the right moment with an EFB application that provides real-time support for fuel-saving during the flight in a seamless, natural, and simple way.
• As a matter of fact, very soon a new product will integrate the SkyBreathe® platform that will offer BIG saving opportunities. We hope you’ll enjoy this news as much as we do, stay tuned!

Combining all these modules, airlines can build and grow a successful fuel efficiency program without having to juggle many different tools, and achieve greater fuel savings while protecting nature, all in one place.

Corsair International is a French airline based at Paris-Orly airport which operates Airbus A330.

Jonathan Hess, Operations Engineer & Manager of Flight Operations Engineering at Corsair, shares his experience of using SkyBreathe® Analytics to optimize fuel savings.

• Which were your goals and main issues when you chose SkyBreathe®?

Fuel efficiency has been a serious matter at Corsair for a long time.

Indeed, we created our first fuel efficiency letters for pilots in 2007. We also had fuel efficiency studies going on, and we had a pilot in charge of analyzing flight data.

However, it was difficult to conduct advanced fuel analyses based on flight data without a Fuel Efficiency Management System.

Also, with the rise in fuel prices, we felt increasing financial pressure, so we decided to accelerate our fuel efficiency efforts by implementing SkyBreathe® to save fuel.

• How did the implementation of the project go?

Of course, we faced some challenges during the implementation phase of the project: mostly regarding flight planning data formats. However, our IT Engineers and OpenAirlines had an excellent collaboration; we appreciate the flexibility and ability of OpenAirlines’ project team to adapt to our data formats.

We implemented SkyBreathe® in 7 months in line with our project plan.

• What are the benefits that the solution brings to Corsair International so far?

SkyBreathe® allows us to find opportunities to be more efficient in places that we weren’t questioning because we thought it couldn’t be improved.

For example, in the West Indies, the alternate airport at arrival for Fort-France (FDF) was in Pointe à Pitre (PTP), and vice-versa. It was convenient since they are both French fields and we had an assistance contract.

However, we realized that if we used Sainte Lucie (UVF for Fort de France and ANU for Pointe à Pitre) as alternate airports, it could generate substantial savings. So, we decided to change the flight plan, and it resulted in a strong decrease of alternate fuel reserve. Six months after it has been implemented, we observed a gain of 37,000€.

Another example is that we realized that we had significant variations between the actual and planned zero-fuel weight.

So we decided to act on freight forecasts, asking for a day-of-ops update to have a more reliable zero-fuel weight, and adjust the fuel accordingly.

During the following year, we improved significantly the average weight difference (planned VS actual). Indeed, we estimated it allowed us to save around 130,000€.

Furthermore, we strongly decreased our average pilot extra fuel by means of communication to the pilots and save more than 110,000€ the following year.

Generally, SkyBreathe® helps us to challenge our processes, brings potentials to light, and so is a key tool for change management.

• What features do you particularly enjoy?

I really enjoy the whole tool, but what I enjoy the most is the Query Editor, which is a flexible environment where we can create our own indicators and measures to run any kind of analysis.

• What advice would you give to airlines which want to set up a fuel efficiency program?

First, I think it is important to gather a multidisciplinary team. Getting people engaged in fuel efficiency is a challenge. I would say that involving engaged pilots is key to nurture fuel efficiency meeting with feedback from the field.

It is also necessary to have a dedicated person for fuel analysis to turn fuel analysis into actionable insights.

And my last advice would be to communicate on fuel efficiency as much as you can.

• If you had to define SkyBreathe® in 3 words?

I would define SkyBreathe® with the following words

• User-friendly
• Intuitive
• Complete: SkyBreathe® allows us to benefit from all our flight data to get actionable insights.
