What Are The Key Factors Driving Growth In The Airport Operations Market?
The growth of the airport operations market is predicted to be driven by the growing volume of passenger traffic. The term passenger traffic relates to the transportation of people by air, land, or sea, and is gauged over a designated time period. The heightened degree of passenger traffic is attributable to aspects like economic progression, augmenting demand for travel, reasonable flight fares, and enhanced connectivity. With the escalation in passenger traffic, efficient airport operations become a necessity to handle the heightened requirement for services which includes check-ins, security measures, baggage management, and comprehensive utilization of infrastructure. For instance, as per the forecast from the Airports Council International (ACI), a Canadian organization of airport authorities, the global passenger traffic is likely to surpass the levels prior to the pandemic, hitting 9.5 billion in 2024, and exceeding 12 billion by 2030. Comparing with the levels in 2024, it is expected to double to 19.5 billion by 2042. Hence, the growth of the airport operations market is being spurred by the increasing passenger traffic.
