Surf Air Mobility Inc. (NYSE: SRFM) announced the release of two new modules within its SurfOS operating system designed to reduce operational costs for airline operations. The modules focus on fuel optimization and crew reserve management.

The fuel optimization module reconciles fuel uplift records against vendor invoices to identify billing discrepancies and tracks actual fuel burn against planned consumption across routes, aircraft, and crews. The system monitors fuel performance by flight and crew while integrating airport-level fuel pricing to recommend optimal uplift strategies.

The crew reserve optimization module automates reserve crew assignments, replacing manual processes that previously resulted in staffing inefficiencies. The system calculates seasonal demand-adjusted reserve requirements by base and tracks utilization rates to identify coverage gaps.

Both modules are currently operational within the company's scheduled airline operations. According to the company, the systems bring data-driven approaches to processes that were previously managed manually.

"SurfOS is digitalizing our airline operations by consolidating fragmented data and manual processes into a single software operating system designed to improve our visibility, coordination, and control," said Louis Saint-Cyr, President - Airlines of Surf Air Mobility.

The Los Angeles-based company operates what it describes as one of the largest commuter airlines in the United States by scheduled departures. The SurfOS platform is powered by AI tools developed in partnership with Palantir.

The information is based on a company press release statement.
