This paper examines how digital transformation enhances airline logistics by driving cost efficiency and operational performance. Integrating a mixed-methods approach that combines systematic literature review with empirical case studies, the study evaluates the impact of AI-driven predictive analytics, IoT-enabled asset tracking, and blockchain technology on key performance indicators such as delay cost reduction, inventory cost savings, and streamlined procurement cycles. Findings indicate that digital interventions not only address traditional challenges like high operational costs and fragmented systems but also foster a data-driven culture essential for continuous improvement and competitive advantage. These results, supported by recent studies [1][2][3], provide actionable insights for airline managers and policymakers. Future research should focus on the synergistic integration of emerging technologies and longitudinal analyses to further validate sustainable digital transformation in airline logistics.
