Abstract

The world is becoming more connected, with the internet bringing us closer together, 24- hour news allowing us to see what is happening around the world, and more efficient planes allowing us to travel from place to place. Over the next decade, China will overtake the US as the highest source of passengers, flying to, from, and within the country, potentially rising to over 1 billion. Even if there is a downturn in productivity and restrictions in trade agreements, globally there should still be more than 6 billion passengers every year by the end of the next decade, significantly higher than today. Passengers numbering in the billions will continue to use planes, and many millions of new fliers will experience it for the first time, eventually becoming loyal customers. Job Growth: Job growth is also increasing Aviation industry growth. An increase in passengers will have a knock-on effect of stimulating more jobs in the Aviation industry. There are already 65 million jobs supported by the industry, but even more, will be needed to handle the volume of new flights. The IATA surveyed growth in the Aviation sector and found that the majority of respondents predict growth in ground operations, cabin crew, and customer service personnel jobs over the next two years, which will allow the industry to maintain its high standards. The 10 million jobs directly in the Aviation sector are around 4.4 times more productive than the average job around the world, and there will be millions more Aviation jobs created over the next decade. Supersonic Flight: New Aviation technology is emerging all the time, making flights faster, more efficient, and a more enjoyable experience for customers.
