A system includes a processing circuit onboard an aircraft and configured to determine an optimum cruise profile for the aircraft based on a flight plan, a characteristic of the aircraft, and an environmental characteristic. The processing circuit is also configured to determine an optimized cruise vertical path based on the optimum cruise profile and air traffic information of at least one other aircraft, and control an autopilot system of the aircraft to cause the aircraft to follow the optimized cruise vertical path.
