The development of AI, machine learning, and big data analytics continues to expand the possibilities for improving aviation operations and services. AI can analyze massive datasets generated by aircraft sensors and systems to extract valuable insights for improving performance, fuel efficiency, and decision-making.
In January 2023, British Airways used AI to optimize its flight paths and save an estimated 100,000 tons of fuel. The airline's AI system analyzed millions of data points to identify the most efficient flight paths for each route. This resulted in a 1% reduction in fuel consumption, which saved British Airways an estimated USD10 million. Through better resource utilization, predictive maintenance, and fuel-efficient operations, AI can contribute to significant cost savings for airlines and operators, propelling the market growth.
