Zurich, Switzerland – 12 May 2014 – CityJet has signed an agreement with Aviaso for the implementation of a fully automated EU-ETS verification and reporting tool. By providing automated data collection, integrated verification routines, and comprehensive reporting, the software from Aviaso is ensuring full compliance with the European Union Emissions Trading System legislation.

“EU-ETS reporting is a demanding topic which requires rigorous quality checks and can be very time- consuming. We have chosen Aviaso for our EU-ETS reporting, since their solution is already proven at several airlines and will significantly ease our data quality and verification process”, says Jack Killoch, General Manager Flight Operations at CityJet. "Even though CityJet is a medium-sized airline, we have a relatively complex setup with many wet lease-in and wet lease-out flights and several IT systems with which the new EU-ETS solution has to integrate. After evaluating several solutions, the Aviaso software did meet all our requirements. Furthermore, we have checked several airline references and the feedback we received was very good.”

The Aviaso/EU-ETS solution ensures full compliance with the EU Emissions Trading System legislation. The software supports fully automated data collection, and comes with adapters that connect directly to all the major airline IT systems. High data quality is achieved with numerous ready-made validations and cross-check routines. Flexible customization allows further validations to be added according to the airline’s monitoring plans and other needs. In addition to all standard EU-ETS reports, many more reports are available for in-depth analyses and auditing purposes.

“We are proud to have CityJet as a new customer. This is the second Ireland-based carrier to use Aviaso/EU- ETS for its reporting needs in addition to Aer Lingus”, says Rudolf Christen, CEO of Aviaso. “Aviaso is helping several airlines in their successful compliance with a complex and ever-changing legislation such as the EU-ETS legislation. We are carefully monitoring all changes related to EU-ETS and adjust our software, if needed, to ensure that our customers stay fully compliant.”
