Digitising the passenger experience and building a smart airport of the future

As Turkey's second busiest, Istanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport first opened in 2008, and in 2019, handled 35.5 million passengers. It expects to reach 65 million in the coming years.

Sabiha Gökçen International Airport has ambitious growth plans. It expects to add a second runway in the coming years, enabling it to almost double passenger numbers. Sabiha Gökçen doesn't just want to be big, it wants to be smart. Its Aruba architecture enables the airport to build out a network to cover the entire site, from the terminal to hotels, parking to public transport. This will be the basis for the airport's plans to digitise the passenger experience.
