At the airport; Unlike the procedures we are used to, biometric scanning and advanced passport control to save passengers from the queues and stress of the registration process, it is aimed to save time. Other developed airport examples in the world are examined and in the light of the information received, it is aimed to find solutions to the problematic points. For those advanced technology uses, it is necessary to list the information given for the time being; it is said to use guiding signals and geo-finding technologies for boarding pass alerts when boarding at the gates of the boarding area.
Information Technology (IT) solutions are other services that are expected to be implemented in facilities such as Airport Joint Decision Making Mechanism (A-CDM), Building Information Modeling (BIM), Virtual Reality (VR) for facility management.
However, it was announced on IGA’s own website that it will work with technologies such as augmented reality, smart kiosk machines, services enabled for social media, airport games, loyalty services, queue management, airport mobile application and continuous IOT (Internet of Things). With the help of user-oriented advanced technologies; a system that allows passengers to produce the baggage label, which is a solution to the problems experienced by the passengers in baggage delivery at airports, will be used.

Airport; the location of the land on which it will be built has been subjected to many reactions. It has been the target of different criticism in different periods. Due to its influence on the elements around its location, many environmentalist organizations were exposed to criticism and their construction was strongly opposed. Despite this, the first phase of the project was completed. Despite all these environmental reactions, IGA’s site shared the awards and honors that the project received for sustainability.
