BOEING'S AVIATION OUTLOOK predicts air travel demand will outpace economic growth through 2043, with emerging markets and global single-aisle demand remaining the primary growth drivers for the industry. South Asia passenger traffic will increase 7.4%, followed by Southeast Asia (7.2%) and Africa (6.4%), as emerging markets return to historical growth trends through the forecast period. Eurasia is projected to lead all markets with the most airplane deliveries (22% of total) with North America (20%) and China (20%) close behind. Single-aisle airplanes will make up 71% of the 2043 fleet after 33,380 new deliveries, serving short- to medium-haul routes with versatility. The global widebody fleet will more than double, with twin-aisles comprising 44% of the Middle East fleet.
