Several challenges are in the way of implementing technology in an airport. Airport 4.0 proposes the \"Smart Airport\" concept, which focuses on using modern technologies such as Big Data, the Internet of Things (IoT), advanced biometric systems, blockchain, and cloud computing to alter and enhance passengers' journeys. Several common IoT concrete topics as partial keys to smart airports are discussed and introduced, ranging from automated check-in systems to exterior tracking processes, with the goal of enlightening more and more insightful ideas and proposals about smart airport solutions. IoT will dramatically alter people's lives by infusing intelligence, boosting the quality of life, and assembling it smarter. This paper reviews the approaches to transforming an airport into a smart airport and describes several enabling components of IoT and challenges that can hinder the implementation of a smart airport's function, which require to be addressed.<\/p>","references":"[1]\tPeneda, Mauro Jos\u00e9 Aguiar, Vasco Domingos Reis, and Maria do Ros\u00e1rio MR Mac\u00e1rio, \"Critical factors for development of airport cities,\" Transportation research record., vol. 2214, no. 1, pp. 1-9, 2011. \r\n[2]\tJ.
