This paper covers the aspects of implementation of the Internet of Things concept into airport operations. It suggests areas that would be closely related to the Internet of Things. These areas mainly concern the handling of passengers or baggage and would be able to speed up the whole process significantly. The second part concerns the increase of passenger comfort by providing various information during their stay at the airport. This new system could significantly improve the quality of travel. In the last part, this paper discusses options for implementation of the concept at various selected airports. It includes information on readiness of these airports for digital transformation and availability of the digital tools for such a transformation.
