Boeing projects demand for 36.770 new planes over the next twenty years, up 4,2 percent from last year's forecast.
The company released its Current Market Outlook (CMO) report in London in July, estimating the total value of these planes at US$5.200 billion.
“This market is strong and resilient,” said Randy Tinseth, vice president of marketing for Boeing Commercial Airplanes. “With new, more efficient planes entering service, the growth in air travel is being driven by customers wanting to fly where they want, when they want.”
Fueling this year's forecast is the single-aisle market, which is projected to be the fastest growing and most dynamic segment, due to the continued emergence of low-cost carriers, 25.680 new aircraft will be required in this segment, making up 70 percent of the total units in the forecast.
“Based on the huge amount of orders and deliveries, we see the heart of the single-aisle market in the 160-seat range,” said Tinseth. “There is no doubt that the market is converging on this size, where network flexibility and cost efficiency meet. The new generation 737-800 and 737 MAX 8 offer our customers the greatest revenue potential in this midsize space.”
Boeing predicts that 8.600 new planes will be needed in the twin-aisle segment, led by small wide-body planes in the 200- to 300-seat range, such as the 787-8 and 787-9 Dreamliner. This year's forecast reflects a steady shift in demand from large aircraft to new efficient twin-engine products like the 787-10 and new 777X.
“With the most comprehensive widebody lineup in the industry, we are confident we will meet our customers' needs now and in the future,” added Tinseth.
