Air travel<\/b>\u00a0has changed a lot since the first commercial aircraft took flight in 1914 where a mayor traveled in Florida for 21 miles on a paid seat. Everything changes with time and so did commercial aviation. There was a time when people use to read newspapers or magazines to keep them occupied. Now we have entertainment systems installed and have\u00a0Wi-Fi\u00a0services enabled in domestic airlines too. We have better aircraft and friendly cabin crew. Everything has changed about commercial aviation and now the focus is more on customer service and security. All of this happened due to the digitization of commercial aviation.\u00a0Air travel<\/b>\u00a0was the first one to get digitized amongst all kind of travel services. Let\u2019s see the impacts of digitization on commercial aviation and how is it helping customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Security<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As traffic increased in commercial aviation,\u00a0the need for security increased too. Security not only in terms of scanners or at check-in but also in other technical aspects of air travel. Maintaining the routes and flight status via communication helps in maintaining a smooth flow of flight operations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Services<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wi-Fi\u00a0enabled planes and helpful cabin crew are just to make sure that the customers are having a good journey. Booking tickets online is super easy now. You can check in or even get a boarding pass using your computer or phone. You get notifications about your status and other offers on your emails. Since everything is online you can avail services more easily.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Economical<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the fuel prices are rising, there are many countries where flying by air costs almost the same as by road. This is because of the increasing competition. Since the mode of transportation as air travel is becoming popular, airlines are trying their best to provide best services to gain more traffic of\u00a0flyers<\/b>. If you have signed up as a\u00a0frequent flyer<\/b>\u00a0you are also eligible for various discounts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Pollution Control<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Airlines are becoming more and more aware of how they can reduce pollution by making changes in the airplanes. Not only are they taking care of air pollution but airports are also trying to work on noise reduction and are making silent zones at airports. By using new\u00a0technologies,\u00a0airlines are trying to follow a more environment-friendly path.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Travel Apps<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Travel apps and websites have impacted air travel to a great extent. We can find\u00a0airline policies<\/b>,\u00a0flight updates<\/b>,\u00a0real-time flight status<\/b>,\u00a0book tickets<\/b>, compare prices, and many other services on travel applications like\u00a0AirWhizz<\/b>. We can also send our flight status using\u00a0AirWhizz<\/b>. A few decades back when the online services were not available, people had to go and physically book their tickets. Now all you have to do is to log in and get your ticket.<\/p>\n
