Airlines are placing huge orders for new fuel-efficient aircraft, and the expansion of LCCs is contributing to the growth of the market

  • The United States accounted for 80% of the total air passenger traffic in North America in 2022. Therefore, the United States is expected to generate the highest demand for new aircraft deliveries compared to other North American countries over the forecast period. Airlines are looking to expand their fleet size to cater to the growing demand for air travel, which may generate significant demand for new aircraft in North America.
  • A total of 1,903 new passenger aircraft were delivered in North America between 2017 and 2022, and a further 2,885 new jets are expected to be delivered to the region during 2023-2030. Of the 1,903 jets delivered, 1,748 were narrowbody aircraft, and 155 were widebody aircraft. The expansion of low-cost carriers has resulted in huge demand for newer generation narrowbody aircraft, which offer advantages such as low operation costs and fuel efficiency in short-haul routes.
  • It is expected that out of all the jets that will be delivered during the forecast period, around 2,678 of them will be narrowbody aircraft. This is due to several factors, including the preference for economical and smaller aircraft, the success of low-cost carriers, and the introduction of long-range narrowbody aircraft.
  • Some of the major airlines in North America are American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Air Canada, and Alaska Airlines. These airlines together have a backlog of over 2,460 aircraft, including a mix of both narrowbody and widebody aircraft. During the COVID-19 pandemic, most major airlines retired some of their old aircraft models and procured new fuel-efficient aircraft to remain profitable. As the airlines try to maintain a younger fleet, large orders for new aircraft are expected during the forecast period.

Consistent growth in air travel is the driving factor for air passenger traffic in North America

  • North America's vast landmass and diverse destinations make it a popular choice for millions of passengers who choose to fly both domestically and internationally. Factors such as a growing economy, increased affordability of air travel, and a rising middle class have contributed to a significant uptick in air passenger traffic. Air passenger traffic in the United States reached 1.04 billion in 2022, up by 7% compared to 2021 and 12% compared to 2019. In 2022, from January through December, US airlines carried 853 million passengers, up from 658 million in 2021 and 388 million in 2020. The total number of passengers carried by airlines in Canada reached 107 million in 2022, surpassing the levels in 2021 by 6%. In 2022, Mexico had 100 million air passenger traffic, representing a 7% growth compared to its 2021 traffic levels. North America has benefitted from fewer and shorter-lasting travel restrictions than many other countries and regions. This has boosted domestic travel in the large home market, as well as international travel. Net profits in the region are expected to rise from USD 9.9 billion in 2022 to USD 11.4 billion in 2023.
  • To cater to the demand driven by air passenger traffic, various airlines in the region are planning to procure new aircraft. For instance, around one-third of global aircraft deliveries in 2023 were anticipated to be received by various carriers in North America. Although the region’s aircraft deliveries were already above 2019 levels in 2022, they were expected to grow by an additional 72 units in 2023. Overall, with consistent air travel, the region's air passenger traffic is expected to increase by 1.7 billion in 2030 compared to 1.2 billion recorded in 2022.
