Topic:
To analyse the impact of AI technology that are reshaping the flying experience within the
aviation industry.
Study Question
What are some use of AI in aviation industry? How it helps in streamlining the airport
management system and also discuss its importance for reshaping the flying experience.
INTRODUCTION
Background information
Aviation industry mainly encompasses all the aspects which are related to the air travel
and other components that helps in facilitating it. It also means that it covers the complete airline
industry, aircraft manufacturing etc (Toorajipour and et.al 2021). As its invention is quite
impressive which is found that the introduction of the kites in air, this built an idea to come up
with the ride that flies in the sky. Aviation industry is rapidly growing industry because of its
benefit which it offers that are worldwide transportation that helps in developing the economic
growth and also it supports the international trade and tourism. This industry is mainly
considering as the luxurious as with this customer can easily travel to the different places and to
indulge into the different country’s culture. Ultimate aim of the aviation industry is to provide
the better and remarkable flying experience to the customer (Abbass, 2019). Not only for the
consumer perspective smooth running of this industry also helps in economic growth as it
incorporates to facilitate integration among the global economy and also develops the vital
connectivity on national and international scale.
Emergence of the new technologies are anticipating every industry thus in aviation
industry utilisation of the technologies is increasing rapidly. As it is estimated that airline
industry is carrying the numerous number of the passengers which is almost 3.6 billion per year
and it also marking delivery for the one third total trade of the world. Increment in the passengers
and technological innovation is setting the new criteria for the airline industry. Artificial
intelligence is the emerging technology that is anticipating the business sector, with the use of
this technology businesses can easily upgrade their customer’s experience at every touch point

which helps in driving the inflow of cash or revenues. From chat bots to the voice based AI
devices are helping in streamlining the different processes (Larrañaga and et.al 2018). Therefore,
airline industry also understanding the power of AI and moving forward to implement it in their
operational tasks, this technology is helping them in a setting up their technological aspect. As it
has the good impact over the airline industry, many airlines are thinking of investing in this
technology because of its impact over the multiple areas of aviation industry.
With the use of the AI it helps in improvising the operational efficiency within the
aviation industry, it also promotes to enhance the customer satisfaction and also supports the
sustainability and safety at the airport. AI guides the airport team to enhance the aircraft
turnaround process as by using the cameras will help in directing to parking stands so it will
identify all events that make up turnaround, by capturing all these will enable to share the
information among the stakeholders such as airport, airlines and to the local authorities. Thus it
guides in making the effective decision for the aircraft journey which also helps in reducing the
chances for the delays and accidents (Goncharenko, 2020). As for the airport management AI is
used to analyse and identify the patterns. It is used as to predict how long the processes will take,
as by analysing the factors which are queue length and also how many security lanes are
operated. Therefore, AI is being adopted by many airline industries for managing their tasks, it
also supports the security management at the airport level so that it reduces the likelihood for any
disaster.
Successful use of AI application in aviation industry helps in identifying the passengers,
as it helps the security management team to analyse the chances of threats which mainly present
at airport. It is also found that AI embedded devices easily lay out the traveller identification
process with the security scanners, machine learning device help in easing the ground level
operational task. AI also used as to screen the baggage at multiple conveyor belts, as automated
screening helps the security to detect the illegal products to reduce the chance for any potential
risk. One of the major benefit AI offers to the aviation industry is to provide the on time solution
for their customer problem, as AI tools are able to deliver the fast and accurate solution so that it
helps in improvising the customer experience. It is also analysed that airbus an aircraft
manufacturer is mainly using the AI technology for the reliability and maintenance of their
aircraft (Strinati and et.al 2019). As Sky wise a cloud based process supports the data storage, as
the fleet gathers the huge amount of real time data which stores in cloud server. Than predictive
