New Solutions for Every Aviation Segment Launching in 2026
Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 Introduced as Company\u2019s Aviation Intelligence Engine<\/p>\n

AUSTIN, Texas, July 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) \u2014 Jeppesen ForeFlight today unveiled its aviation-centric AI engine, the foundation of its strategy to bring responsible artificial intelligence to all sectors of aviation. Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 has been developed over the last several years, backed by decades of deep domain experience, industry-leading data, and capabilities spanning crew and fleet planning, day-of-flight operations, and flight deck solutions.<\/p>\n

Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 is the foundational agentic AI engine combining commercially available data, segregated proprietary customer data, and extensive domain knowledge including safety, certification expertise, and contextual reasoning across every aviation market. Built on an open architecture and designed to be model agnostic, Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 gives customers full flexibility in how they adopt AI, whether by integrating their own agents, leveraging third-party solutions, or deploying Jeppesen ForeFlight\u2019s native agents. Customers can move at their own pace, at lower cost, and with as much or as little human control over key decisions as their operations require. This flexibility, paired with the company\u2019s reach across crew, fleet, operations, and flight deck performance, distinguishes Jeppesen ForeFlight from generic AI platforms and single-point solutions.<\/p>\n

The company is already previewing its first product in the General Aviation market, the ForeFlight AI Connector, an MCP server connecting ForeFlight Mobile to a customer\u2019s existing OpenAI ChatGPT environment. Users can query their personal AI for flight plans and refueling options, or build AI-connected tools and workflows using their data in ForeFlight Mobile. The company intends to expand this feature to other popular AI applications such as Google\u2019s Gemini and Anthropic\u2019s Claude so users can use the experience layer of their choosing.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Later this year, Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 will debut its first offerings to the Commercial and Business aviation segments, with military-focused capabilities to follow.<\/p>\n

\u201cGeneral AI is confident, but often wrong. In our industry, these mistakes cascade into costly, dangerous, or catastrophic outcomes. Artificial intelligence is not enough for this industry, we need aviation intelligence: the assurance that the right data, right context, and right reasoning are applied every time, and always cross-checked and filtered through industry safety and governance protocols,\u201d said Brad Surak, CEO, Jeppesen ForeFlight. \u201cWe have helped the industry evolve from paper to digital to mobile, and we are bringing to market a highly differentiated AI offering in Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 that customers can deploy on their own terms and timelines, at significantly lower IT costs than previous industry transitions.\u201d<\/p>\n

Unlike other aviation industry approaches, Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 differentiates and delivers in five critically important areas:<\/p>\n

Reasons in Context \u2013 Trusted workflows that fully grasp how the aviation industry actually operates, not just what tended to happen last time.
\nReasons from Certified Inputs \u2013 Provenanced intelligence: every outcome carries the regulatory authority and certified accuracy of Jeppesen ForeFlight\u2019s longstanding aviation data and capabilities that much of the industry already relies on for safe and optimized operations.
\nCarries a Visible Why-Trail \u2013 Every recommendation reveals the underlying causal logic, from specific inputs and operational constraints through evaluated alternatives and associated uncertainty. This auditable decision trace creates a continuous improvement cycle, improving outcomes over time.
\nOperates Inside the company\u2019s Safety Management System (SMS) \u2013 built on the safety framework aviation already runs on via our patent-pending Aviation Intelligence SMS (AI-SMS).
\nHuman-centered Judgments \u2013 AI handles the volume. Customers select how much automation they need, with an assurance that humans remain in control of decision-making wherever necessary.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are leveraging decades of experience delivering data and software solutions globally, which compounds virtually every second on the 60 million flights we serve annually. But most importantly, our AI earns trust one decision at a time,\u201d Surak added.<\/p>\n

Jeppesen ForeFlight Airflow\u2122 aviation context graph is the most authoritative record of how aviation operates. When our AI reasons from this foundation, every output inherits that regulatory provenance that is purpose-built within Jeppesen ForeFlight\u2019s AI SMS: encompassing hazard identification, safety trend analysis, predictive risk modeling, and the integration of operational data with safety records in ways traditional tools cannot support.\u00a0<\/p>\n
