Air Transportation Market Drivers and Opportunities

Rise in Air Transportation Across the Globe to Favor the Market

• The increase in air travel across the world can be attributed to the industry’s growth based on a variety of factors. One instrumental reason for the growth in the air transport industry is the constant progress in the safety and predictability in air travel, which fosters air transport development. On the other hand, new technologies, such as the development of the Boeing 747, the first wide-body plane which was nicknamed the ‘jumbo jet’, are other reasons for the decrease in the cost of air travel.
• This has led to cheaper long-haul flying and enabled the development of international tourism, which significantly benefitted the middle class. Additionally, the structure of the air transport network is another reason for the increase in the average distance flown by planes, as they form hubs, which implies that the distance between two specific airports increased relative to the past. However, the drastic growth in aviation has also been countered by recessions and the effects of geopolitical instability, such as the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Rise in Aircraft Fleet Orders

• There are, however, some ready explanations to the observation that worldwide there has been a big increase in aircraft fleet orders. First of all, as the rate of air travel continues to increase around the world, especially in parts of Asia where demand is growing, a major and expanding need for new aircraft will be required for a long time as people keep increasing their travel, which, in turn, increases demand for new aircraft.
• The response by the airlines is an order for 100 Boeing 787 Dreamliners with an option for 100 more aircraft. In fact, only a few weeks ago, United Airlines announced an order for 100 Boeing 787 Dreamliners with the option for 100 more, for a list price of more than $37 billion. It is expected that this large order is designed to expand its airline fleet and remain competitive in the airline business by having a modern, fuel-efficient, and operationally more effective aircraft to improve the airline’s delivery service to its customers.
• Such rise in aircraft fleet order across the globe is expected to create opportunity for the key players operating in the air transportation market.
