Market Trends of asia-pacific commercial aircraft in-flight entertainment system Industry
The introduction of long-range narrowbody aircraft is the key market driver in Asia-Pacific
- New aircraft deliveries in Asia-Pacific are expected to register a CAGR of 11% during the forecast period. Airlines are looking to expand their fleet sizes to cater to the growing demand for air travel, which may generate significant demand for new aircraft in the region. China accounted for 37% of the total air passenger traffic in Asia-Pacific. Hence, the country is anticipated to generate the highest demand for new aircraft compared to other Asia-Pacific countries.
- During 2017-2022, a total of 2,469 new aircraft were delivered in the region. In addition, 6,000 new jets are expected to be delivered to the region between 2023 and 2030. The aircraft deliveries in the region during the historic period accounted for 42% of the total commercial aircraft deliveries worldwide. More deliveries are anticipated during the forecast period due to several factors, such as the preference for economical and smaller aircraft, the success of LCCs, and the introduction of long-range narrowbody aircraft.
- Some major airlines in the region, such as Air India, Singapore Airlines, China Southern Airlines, Qantas, Vistara, and Korea Airlines, have a backlog of over 3,500 aircraft, including a mix of both narrowbody and widebody jets. These airlines, in order to stay profitable during the COVID-19 pandemic, opted to retire some of the old aircraft models and purchase new aircraft that are fuel-efficient. As the airlines may try to maintain a younger fleet, large orders for new aircraft are expected over the next three years across Asia-Pacific countries.

An increase in international passenger traffic post the COVID-19 pandemic is driving market demand
- As cross-border travel was progressively restored in 2022 post the COVID-19 pandemic, the carriers in Asia-Pacific raced to increase their flights to meet runaway demand, stimulated by people's desire to travel and cash in on savings accumulated in the two years of isolation. As a result, in 2022, the air passenger traffic in the region recovered more rapidly from the pandemic than in the other regions. For instance, in 2022, air passenger traffic in the whole of Asia-Pacific was recorded at 1.9 billion, a growth of 6% compared to 2021 and 151% compared to 2020. Airline companies in the region are implementing fleet expansion plans to cater to the growing air passenger traffic in the major countries. China, India, Japan, and Indonesia accounted for 70% of the total air passenger traffic in the region, generating higher demand for new aircraft compared to other Asia-Pacific countries.
- Airlines in Asia-Pacific also witnessed a good recovery in international air passenger markets as travel demand continued to fuel growth despite increasingly challenging global economic conditions. For instance, in August 2022, the region recorded 13.1 million international air passenger traffic, an 836% increase compared to August 2021, when it was recorded at 1.4 million. The healthy growth in international passenger traffic in the first eight months of the year showed strong travel demand from business and leisure consumers. The rapid increase in air passenger traffic in the region is expected to drive the air transport industry in the future.
