SEOUL, South Korea - Hybrid airline Air Premia in Seoul, South Korea sought technology to improve operational efficiency, enhance safety, and reduce carbon emissions. They found their solution from GE Aerospace in Cincinnati, Ohio. The software package includes three main programs: Fuel Insight, Safety Insight, and the FlightPulse app.
Fuel Insight utilizes GE Aerospace’s Event Measurement System (EMS) to optimize fuel efficiency across all phases of aircraft operation. According to the airline, this system can boost fuel efficiency by 1.4% annually, potentially reducing carbon emissions by 5,916 tons based on current operational levels.
Safety Insight is a data-driven software solution that analyzes incoming aircraft data to help identify risks and improve overall flight safety.

The FlightPulse app, part of an Electronic Flight Bag (EFB) system, provides pilots with fuel efficiency and safety data. It integrates information from Fuel Insight and Safety Insight, allowing pilots to access critical insights related to fuel usage and operational safety, while also familiarizing them with potential risks.
“Air Premia is the first airline in South Korea to introduce GE Aerospace's integrated software solution with FlightPulse, Safety Insight, and Fuel Insight," said Haejihn Lim, head of Air Premia’s Flight Operations Engineering team. "Introducing this integrated solution will provide key insights to help reduce emissions and drive the airline's overall sustainability goals."
