Vietjet has signed a strategic partnership with OpenAirlines, a global leader in AI-driven airline fuel efficiency solutions. With this collaboration, Vietjet becomes the first airline in Vietnam to adopt SkyBreathe®, an advanced AI-powered platform that analyses flight data to optimise fuel consumption and reduce carbon emissions.
With SkyBreathe®, Vietjet will harness AI, big data algorithms, and machine learning to analyse extensive flight data and enhance fuel efficiency. The platform consolidates information from multiple sources, including aircraft sensors and fuel reports, into a unified platform. Having processed data from over 21 million flights, SkyBreathe® leverages the world’s largest fuel efficiency database for airlines.
The SkyBreathe® 360° eco-flying platform pinpoints key fuel-saving opportunities and provides tailored recommendations for pilots and flight operations managers. By tapping on SkyBreathe®’s intuitive interface and detailed analytics, Vietjet is projected to reduce fuel consumption by 2% and cut CO2 emissions by over 96,000 tons annually.
Vietjet will also introduce the SkyBreathe® MyFuelCoach application to all its pilots, providing personalised eco-briefings and debriefings. This application helps pilots track performance, identify improvement areas, and implement best practices to optimise fuel efficiency, ultimately lowering fuel consumption and minimising environmental impact.
“This partnership underscores Vietjet’s unwavering commitment to more sustainable flight operations. By harnessing the power of innovation and digitalisation, the airline is transforming its ambitious goal of net-zero emissions by 2050 into concrete actions that benefit not only itself but the entire aviation ecosystem, travelers, and the planet. The implementation of SkyBreathe® is already underway, ensuring Vietjet can quickly unlock its full potential and start seeing measurable results,” said Alexandre Feray, CEO of OpenAirlines.
Vietjet Vice President Nguyen Duc Thinh also shared: “Today’s agreement with OpenAirlines represents a significant milestone in Vietjet’s sustainable development strategy. By leveraging advanced technologies, we can continuously innovate, optimise operations, reduce fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, and enhance passengers’ flight experiences at reasonable costs. This collaboration also highlights Vietjet’s relentless efforts towards sustainability while delivering long-term benefits to the global aviation industry.”
As the newest member of the SkyBreathe® Community, Vietjet joins 73 airlines worldwide committed to advancing sustainable aviation. Through this dynamic network, Vietjet will receive ongoing support from OpenAirlines’ fuel experts to optimise performance and fully leverage the benefits of SkyBreathe®.
This partnership reflects Vietjet’s commitment to sustainable development, supported by strategic collaborations with international aviation and technology leaders.
