Airport Operations Market: Growth Drivers
Increasing air traffic to accelerate the market’s growth
There are several reasons for the increase in aircraft traffic. Population and economic growth, propelled by the expanding middle class, are the leading causes. The global economy is anticipated to rise by 3% per year by 2030, while aviation traffic is expected to grow by an average of 6% per year. The second development component is the introduction of low-cost airlines with affordable prices on popular routes. They contribute significantly to the increase in air traffic in Europe, which currently accounts for more than 40% of the continent and 25% of the world’s traffic. In addition, these companies significantly impact airline pricing by pushing foreign carriers to cut ticket prices. Finally, the airline sector has seen the long-anticipated spike in reservations with the easing of many border restrictions as customers strive to make up for two years of missing travel opportunities due to Covid-19 limitations.
Increasing airport IT expenditures are driving the market.
A significant global airport operations market driver is the steadily increasing IT spending on airports. Increased investment by businesses to reduce operational expenses (OPEX) and implement cutting-edge technology like wireless connection, automated solutions, and check-in kiosks might be seen as rising IT spending on airports. In addition, airport authorities want to provide a variety of infrastructure services due to increased IT and telecommunications expenditures to give their customers more connected, convenient, and under greater control travel experiences. Due to increased IT & communications spending in the airport sector, it is anticipated that this development driver will have a significant influence over the medium and long terms of the projected period.
