Özet

Abstract: With the technological development in recent years, aviation businesses have had to adapt to digital transformation. While digital transformation affects all processes, its effect on environmental sustainability has begun to be observed. The two processes, which must be carried out together by investigating the effects of digitalization on environmental sustainability, whether positive or negative, should be solved without creating additional costs to businesses and without encountering greater consequences later. Due to the carbon emission created by the aviation industry, environmental sustainability efforts have gained more importance. For both processes to be carried out together without any problems, examples of digitalization applications were examined and their positive and negative effects on sustainability were discussed. In this study, the concepts of sustainability and digitalization are discussed first separately and then together, and the difficulties that digitalization will bring, as well as the contribution of digitalization to sustainability in aviation.
