Instant updates from the flight crew

Dispatchers can easily communicate vital flight information directly to the flight crews skybook EFB application, for things like last-minute updates or alerts.

By ensuring your airline systems are fully integrated with an EFB solution, reduces the need for paper and certain manual tasks, saving crucial time for dispatchers and flight crew.

flight status communication time stamps

Real-time status updates help dispatchers stay on top of every flight’s progress such asOFP uploaded, sector acceptance, fuel orders sent and instant OOOI times.

Creating a clear, time-stamped communication trail for auditing and compliance.

 

Crucial features for dispatch teams

  • Dispatchers can create fully customised and briefing templates in a matter of seconds, enabling detailed flight briefing packs without needing an OFP.
  • Sectors can easily be flagged as to Return to Ramp (RTR) or Return from Airborne (RFA), keeping your operations running smoothly and reducing manual effort during disrupted flights.
  • If there is an incident, all the sector data can be instantly locked for that flight so that no updates can be made until the investigation is resolved.

Analyse data from the EFB app

Operators can measure flight data taken from the pilots completed EFB flight phase logging, such as fuel burn, OTP, KPIs delay codes, and fuel data via skybook’s post-flight reporting tools.

These insights allow continuous operational improvement across dispatch, crew planning and flight crew.
