On the eve of the launch of Farnborough Airlines, Boeing released the 2026 “Civil Aviation Market Outlook”, predicting that global airlines will require nearly 44,000 new aircraft in the next 20 years, and that transformed and emerging markets such as China, the Middle East, Latin America, South and Southeast Asia, and Africa will account for about 55% of new aircraft deliveries. The fleet size of low-cost carriers is expected to grow at a rate of nearly 4% per year, and the growth rate of networked airlines is close to 3%. In terms of cargo, international freighter capacity increased by 5% in 2026, and air cargo volume is expected to grow at an average annual rate of about 3.7% by 2045, exceeding economic and trade growth. High-value, fresh, and time-efficient goods, as well as supply chain reliability and cross-border e-commerce, all support air cargo demand.
