Modern airports are evolving beyond simple measures for improving passenger convenience, automating boarding procedures, and reducing wait times. By integrating advanced technologies from the Fourth Industrial Revolution, such as AI, big data, cloud computing, digital twins, and robotics, airports are now capable of delivering personalized passenger services and real-time operational responses. Therefore, all airport services should be designed to offer the passenger with a seamless journey, from the moment the passenger prepares for departure to the boarding process. Building a smart airport starts with a combination of cutting-edge technologies, operational efficiency, and enhanced passenger experiences. Airports can make the entire airport experience smarter and more efficient by adopting IoT, AI, biometric recognition technology, automated baggage handling systems, self-check-in services, and AI-based security systems, and by leveraging both AI and passenger experience data to provide services tailored to each passenger.
