Author: Sudipta Roy

Aviation Industry is one of the most popular and fastest-growing industries in the world. Young aspirants dream of joining the industry due to multiple job opportunities and competitive salary packages.

Aviation Colleges in India offer an array of professional aviation courses such as a BBA in Aviation Operations, and a Diploma in Aviation Hospitality and Aviation Management that aspirants can opt for to reach the zenith of success in the aviation industry.

With innovative modern technologies aviation industry is trying to leave no stone unturned to serve customers with a comfortable and better flying experience. Artificial Intelligence is one such that the global aviation industry is emphasizing on

Artificial Intelligence is intelligence demonstrated by machines, unlike the natural intelligence displayed by animals, including humans. This term was coined in 1970, but after the Internet's evolution, it became prominent. Facebook, Google, etc have now integrated artificial intelligence into their process.

But the question is how can artificial intelligence prove beneficial to the aviation industry? How it can change the aviation industry? Artificial Intelligence will drastically reduce human efforts and provide a high level of accuracy in performing any task.

Let us have a close look at how artificial intelligence can change the aviation industry:-

  • Artificial Intelligence-based virtual assistance can reduce the workload of the employees of the aviation sector. They can answer the most common questions that the airline customer service agents get such as the status of the flights, and basic queries. The virtual assistants can also perform repetitive work for the pilots and the crew members like reading wind forecasts, and changing radio channels. They can also provide information regarding hotels, cars, etc to passengers.

  • Artificial Intelligence can also be used to monitor an aircraft. The A.I. tools can be used in Air craft Digital systems, Valve Engines, Generators, etc. They can help in predicting maintenance hours, wear and tear and many more. Artificial intelligence can detect mechanical faults and will help in saving hundreds of lives.

  • Artificial Intelligence can help in the airline ticketing system, which is complex as the ticket prices are fixed based on distance, oil price, season, etc. The oil prices change every day so the airline industry has to use different pricing strategies for different trips which is a tiresome task. Artificial Intelligence can help predict future pricing easily.

  • Air Traffic Communication is a very important part of the airline industry. A single mistake can result in fatal consequences. Language plays an important role in air transport. English is the "language of the sky ", but the accent varies from country to country. Artificial Intelligence "Voiceover’’ can help in removing language barriers with a common machine-speaking language, that is easy to understand.

These are some of the ways by which Artificial Intelligence can change the aviation industry and take it towards the path of advancement and progress.
