RISE and Skylegs Join Forces
New integration brings seamless optimization to operators using Skylegs FMS
Nouvelle Aquitaine, France, September 23, 2025 - RISE, the company behind the fleet and operations optimizer OPTIRISE™, and Skylegs, a leading Flight Management System (FMS) used by operators worldwide, are proud to announce their new integration designed to streamline scheduling and drive smarter planning across the aviation industry.
With this integration, operators using Skylegs can now seamlessly feed their fleet, crew and operational data directly into OPTIRISE™. The result: faster scenario analysis and more efficient fleet utilization. All without the manual friction that often slows down planning teams.
"We've built OPTIRISE™ to adapt to the way operators work, not the other way around. By integrating with Skylegs, we're helping more teams remove repositioning flights, improve crew plans, and make decisions that actually move the needle."
Max Van Cauwenberghe, CEO at RISE
"We often get asked to build optimization tools ourselves, but we believe it's best to leave this to the experts. Our focus is on giving operators the right ecosystem, and with partners like RISE we stay true to our commitment of reducing waste — in time, resources, and unnecessary flights."
Maxim Schelfhout, CEO at Skylegs
The collaboration is part of RISE's ongoing commitment to connect with the tools operators already use and remove complexity from the optimization process. It's also a signal of RISE's growing footprint in the European and North American markets, where Skylegs has a strong user base.
