RTX's Collins Aerospace Provides Predictive Technology

Collins Aerospace, an RTX business, is now providing JetBlue with FlightAware Foresight^® technology, a predictive analytics tool that helps airlines manage operations by improving visibility, efficiency and decision-making across the flight ecosystem.

FlightAware Foresight technology utilizes real-time flight tracking and smart tools to ensure airlines are equipped with critical arrival and departure data, alerting operators to potential delays caused by weather, congestion or other factors. These insights allow flight operations to make quick adjustments to improve on-time performance, boost connection times and keep passengers proactively informed of schedule changes.

Machine learning algorithms and billions of data points feed the FlightAware Foresight tool. Potential delays are identified early, allowing for quick adjustments to gates, crews and schedules to allow airlines to maintain peak operational performance while ensuring an improved passenger journey.

"Implementing the predictive power of FlightAware Foresight technology enhances JetBlue's operational efficiency while simultaneously delivering more accurate, timely updates to their passengers," said Nicole White, vice president and general manager of Connected Aviation at Collins Aerospace. "This dynamic combination empowers JetBlue to make proactive, informed decisions that positively influence each leg of the passenger experience, from initial departure to final arrival and each connection along the journey."
