Welcome to the Twitter US Airline Sentiment Analysis Project!
This project focuses on analyzing customer opinions shared on Twitter regarding major US airlines.
Social media has become a powerful platform for customers to express their opinions about brands and services. In the airline industry, analyzing such data can provide crucial insights for:
- ✨ Understanding passenger sentiment (positive, neutral, negative)
- ✨ Identifying frequent complaints and areas of improvement
- ✨ Tracking sentiment trends across airlines
- ✨ Using Natural Language Processing (NLP) for text analysis
- ✨ Supporting business strategies with customer-driven insights In this project, we use the Twitter US Airline Sentiment Dataset 🗂️ to perform sentiment classification and extract valuable findings through preprocessing, EDA, NLP techniques, and visualizations.
- 🔹 Understand dataset and business context
- 🔹 Clean and preprocess textual data
- 🔹 Perform Exploratory Data Analysis (EDA)
- 🔹 Apply Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques
- 🔹 Build interactive and meaningful visualizations
- 🔹 Generate insights on customer satisfaction levels
- 🔹 Export results into a structured report and presentation
- Programming Language: Python 🐍
- Data Handling: Pandas, NumPy
- Text Processing: NLTK, re, WordCloud

- 🐦 tweet_id – Unique tweet ID
- 📅 tweet_created – Date & time of tweet
✈️ airline – Airline mentioned- 💬 text – Tweet content
- 😃 airline_sentiment – Sentiment label (positive, neutral, negative)
- 🔍 airline_sentiment_confidence – Confidence score of classification
- 👤 user – Twitter user handle
- Imported dataset using Pandas
- Verified structure, dimensions, and column names
- Removed duplicates & null values
- Cleaned tweet text (stopwords, punctuation, links, hashtags, mentions)
- Tokenization & Lemmatization
- Created new features like word count, character length, hashtags count
- Sentiment distribution (positive, neutral, negative)
