Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Infrastructure allows for fast and efficient cargo handling, reducing transportation time and ensuring timely delivery. Air transport infrastructure affects logistics and its main elements, ensuring the efficiency of logistics operations. Airport infrastructure and air navigation systems allow airlines and logistics operators to plan optimal routes, which reduces costs and increases transportation efficiency. To ensure safety, efficiency, economic development and environmental sustainability of the aviation industry, it is necessary to use foreign experience and the latest approaches to aviation infrastructure management. The article is devoted to the study of the features of aviation infrastructure management based on foreign experience in the application of innovations in aviation. To achieve this goal, an analytical review of data from various sources was conducted to identify the relationship between aviation infrastructure management and innovations to ensure its development. It is proven that the role of infrastructure in air transportation is key and multifaceted, as it ensures the effective functioning of the entire air transport system, contributing to the safety, reliability, comfort and economic profitability of air transportation. The latest stage in the development of aviation infrastructure is the integration of digital technologies, automation of air traffic control, increasing energy efficiency and environmental friendliness. It was determined that the main drivers of change are the growth of air traffic volumes, the development of multimodal transport hubs and the need to adapt to new standards of a carbon-neutral economy. Innovations in aviation infrastructure are highlighted, namely technological, environmental and organizational. The necessity of switching to aviation fuel is proven and the advantages and challenges are highlighted. The possibilities of resuming aviation operations in Ukraine through the opening of the Danylo Halytskyi Lviv International Airport as one of the key aviation hubs are investigated. The results of the study can be used to substantiate the feasibility of implementing foreign experience in aviation infrastructure management.
