Past and future
Their story
OpenAirlines was founded in 2006 by Alexandre Feray in Toulouse on a core principle: to help airlines optimize their operations and to reduce their environmental impact.
Starting from the observation that every year nearly 1 billion tons of CO2 are emitted by airplanes, i.e., more than 30 000 kilos of CO2 per second, we have decided to act by developing innovative solutions to help airlines reduce their costs and environmental impact.
Drawing on years of R&D, SkyBreathe® came into the market in 2013 as an innovative eco-flying solution to save fuel and reduce airlines’ carbon footprint by up to 5%.
Rewarded by many innovation awards, the software is now used by a very active community of 55+ airlines worldwide, including Air France, Norwegian, Korean Air, flydubai, and DHL...
