  • Reduce Costs: No need to invest in expensive third-party systems—FlightLogger Business Insights brings everything together within the platform you already trust.
  • Better Decision-Making: Real-time insights empower you to make faster, more informed decisions about your flight school’s operations and resource allocation.

What’s New?

FlightLogger Business Insights introduces a completely customizable dashboard for administrators, offering a personal view of key operational data. From booking statuses to aircraft availability, you can now monitor all relevant data in real-time. We’ve preloaded five widgets to get you started, but you can easily add, remove, or rearrange them to suit your needs.

Some widgets, like bookings, warnings, and aircraft status, will remain fixed at the top to ensure critical information is always visible. However, if certain widgets, such as empty booking slots, have no data, you can choose to hide them for a cleaner dashboard.

For instructors and students, we’ve introduced a METAR & TAF weather widget with real-time updates for selected locations, while keeping the rest of their experience familiar for an easy transition.

FlightLogger Business Insights is fully responsive, so you can access your key metrics from any device—whether you’re in the office, at home, or on the go. Complete flexibility means you stay informed no matter where you are.

How Does It Work?

When you log in, you'll be greeted by the new FlightLogger Business Insights board. All users can personalize their page by clicking the Settings button and choosing from a variety of widgets. Each user’s setup is unique, ensuring you have the data you need at your fingertips.

In the settings, use the Add button to add more widgets to your board. Then use the Edit button to rearrange your widgets and to delete widgets that you don't need. For the required widgets, toggle the Eye icon to hide widgets if they don't have any content (for example if you have no bookings).
