Lilium has launched the next phase of its Power-On aftermarket services portfolio, providing a suite of digital solutions to ensure efficient and seamless operation of the Lilium Jet.

The digital suite includes flight planning and aircraft performance ground and electronic flight bag solutions, a customer portal with access to technical publications and health monitoring, and other ground operations and safety solutions for its customer base. The portal will integrate AI functions for more efficient workflows. These digital systems represent another step towards the Lilium Jet's planned entry into service in 2026 and reflect the importance of robust digital systems for safe and efficient operations. It represents an integral part of the company’s industry-first service organisation, Lilium Power-On, which will provide a full portfolio of services for all aspects of the daily operations of the aircraft.

Initial partners are already contributing to Lilium's flight test campaign as part of the first phase, including Microsoft's Azure cloud solution for monitoring the health of the aircraft for flight test clearance. As development continues, the offering will expand to integrate additional critical capabilities for efficient flight planning for the Lilium Jet, leveraging proprietary algorithms for Lilium's energy and propulsion systems, and ground operations/vertiport management systems suitable for various types of landing sites and operating models.

Power-On aims to also develop and offer solutions for passenger check-in and biometric vertiport security screening, working with Amadeus, a leading travel technology company to integrate with Amadeus' existing wide range of airport IT solutions and also ensure that Amadeus' global reservation and distribution systems can be used for eVTOL operations.

It will also include flight data monitoring via GE Aerospace's event management system for safety management and training improvement. Additionally, customers will be able to access technical documents and ask for engineering support through a dedicated customer portal, which will integrate AI functions for more efficient workflows.

Lilium Power-On services offering for customers and partners comprises of battery management, maintenance, flight operations, training and digital solutions. It ensures that Lilium partners can access the resources they need while enabling seamless, efficient services and robust aftermarket products. Further partnerships for Lilium’s digital portfolio will be announced shortly.
