Commercial Aircraft Market: Overview
Commercial aeroplanes transport massive amounts of freight or millions of passengers in hours from one end of the world to the other. After the Second World War, commercial aviation saw a boom that can be primarily traced to the crude conversion of ex-military aircraft to carry either freight or passengers.

Growth Factors
The worldwide commercial aircraft market is expanding as a result of several factors. The recent increase in air traffic has been one of the main forces behind the market’s expansion. Particularly emerging economies make significant contributions in these areas, promoting the global commercial aircraft market’s growth. The introduction of new air routes to increase global connectivity has been a significant driver in the growth of the worldwide market. Airline corporations are growing their fleet of planes as a result of it.
The need to acquire the newest commercial aircraft is fueled in part by this. The middle-class population has also experienced a significant economic expansion in recent years. This, together with the expanding trend and rising popularity of international travel, is anticipated to fuel the growth of the global market.
The airline industry’s ambitions for destination development and fleet modernization are gradually reviving the aircraft market, bolstering the order books of aircraft OEMs. Concerning aircraft OEMs, the order backlog is still substantial. Airbus stated that there were 7,036 jets on backorder as of the end of November 2021. Boeing had 4,210 aeroplanes on order. These figures show that, notwithstanding the decline in airline demand, commercial aircraft deliveries will proceed at a healthy rate over the anticipated period.
Segmental Overview
The Commercial Aircraft market is segmented into aircraft types. In 2021, the narrow-body aircraft category had the biggest market share.
Due to their benefits, including cheap operating costs and fuel economy on short-haul routes, newer-generation narrow-body aircraft have seen a huge increase in demand in recent years. This is a result of the success of the low-cost carrier business model.
Longer flight distances are now possible with the more recent generation of narrow-body aircraft thanks to technological developments. The B737 and A320 aircraft families from Boeing and Airbus rank among the most popular in aviation history. Also, Airbus delivered 484 narrow-body aircraft in 2020 compared to 43 delivered by Boeing.
Additionally, Airbus has delivered 460 narrow-body aircraft in the first eleven months of 2021, while Boeing has delivered 230. Boeing’s orders and delivery of single-aisle narrow-body aircraft have been affected by the B737 MAX difficulties. However, Boeing is once more seeking to improve its sales share in the market as the aircraft returns to service at the end of 2020.
The respective Russian and Chinese manufacturers intend to compete with the current market leaders like Airbus and Boeing in the narrow-body aircraft segment, with the first deliveries of the MC-21 and COMAC C919 models anticipated in the next years. Additionally, as domestic passenger demand is predicted to rebound more quickly than global passenger demand during the forecast period, there will likely be a continued high demand for narrow-body aircraft.
Regional Overview
Currently, Asia Pacific is dominating the worldwide market for commercial aeroplanes. The regional market’s dominance results from the rising volume of aircraft procurement. In addition, a recent increase in air passenger traffic is also assisting in the market’s growth. Developing countries like China and India are seeing rapid changes in their domestic air traffic cultures, helping the Asia Pacific region of the commercial aircraft market. Additionally, opening new air routes and introducing next-generation aircraft contribute to the market’s expansion.
