Airline Will Access Navigation And Essential Flight Information Using FliteDeck Pro On iPad
Jeppesen recently agreed to a five-year digital services agreement with Tunisair, the national carrier of Tunisia. Jeppesen will provide Tunisair with FliteDeck Pro electronic flight bag (EFB) on iPad, tailored charting services and OpsData aircraft performance management tools.
“We look forward to integrating Jeppesen’s leading navigation and optimization services to increase our operational efficiency,” said Captain Imed Harzallah, director, Flight Operations Engineering, Tunisair. “In a competitive business landscape, Jeppesen will deliver the proper tools for driving down costs, reducing pilot workload and accessing critical flight and operational data through its intuitive digital solutions.”
Jeppesen OpsData will provide Tunisair with on demand aircraft performance analysis for their mixed Boeing and Airbus fleet to enhance flight efficiency.
“Optimization of navigation and flight services operations will provide Tunisair with an advantage in the market, using digital Jeppesen services,” said Ola Lindblad, director, Jeppesen Sales & Services – Middle East, Africa, Russia and Central Asia. “We are pleased to be working with Tunisair to eliminate paper-based flight materials, reduce fuel consumption and enhance bottom line results based on more efficient processes and data analysis.”
The use of FliteDeck Pro on iPad will increase situational awareness for Tunisair, using real-time, data driven flight information. FliteDeck Pro also significantly reduces flight preparation time and overall pilot workload.
