Welcome to the OpenDay Campus!

This year, OpenDay brings a campus vibe to Toulouse—high-impact sessions, informal exchanges, and one shared goal:
Reinventing Flight Ops excellence together.

 

Beyond efficiency:
designing flight ops’ excellence.

OpenDay 2026 opens a new chapter, expanding our original SkyBreathe® user conference into a broader flight ops community gathering. This year’s program brings fuel efficiency and safety together through a new collaboration with CEFA Aviation, a recognized leader in aviation safety.

This evolution reflects a clear choice: to showcase the future of flight ops excellence through best-in-class, innovation-led solutions and to bring the most advanced practices and tools within a single flight operations community. 

Across the OpenDay Campus, you’ll explore how both disciplines intersect in real operations, from data-driven efficiency insights to safety-focused perspectives. “Beyond Efficiency – Designing Flight Ops Excellence” is the central thread of the Campus, brought to life through masterclasses, training sessions, and peer exchange.

I attended the event for the first time and it was amazing to interact with people from different airlines but under same SkyBreathe community. It was a wonderful event and a good platform to enhance knowledge from different people having different approaches in different airlines.

I came to this conference to share with other customers and to discover new features of the SkyBreathe® software. It was very interesting, especially the workshops, which were a good time to connect and share with others how each airline implements fuel best practices.
