Product Definition:
Fixed-base operators are businesses that provide fuel, maintenance, and other services to general aviation aircraft. They are important because they provide a necessary service for general aviation pilots.
Fueling:
The global fueling system is a network of pipes and pumps that delivers fuel to an aircraft. It comprises of components such as fuel dispensing units, fueling machines, and storage tanks. The FBOs are the operators of commercial aircraft that offer on-board services including refueling, in-flight meals & beverages delivery service, flight monitoring service among others.
Hangaring, Tie-down, and Parking:
Hangaring, tie-down, and parking are the three main services provided by Fixed-base Operators (FBO) at airports. Hangaring is used for storing of aircraft on the ground during non-operational hours. It includes securing of the wings and tail with chains or ropes to prevent them from moving. Tie down is used for securing of an aircraft's wheels so that it does not move around while it is being loaded or unloaded.
Application Insights:
The general aviation segment dominated the global fixed-base operators (FBO) market in 2017, accounting for over 40.0% share of the total revenue. The growth can be attributed to increasing air traffic across general aviation airports as these operators offer facilities such as fuel and maintenance services at cheaper rates than commercial airports. General aviation includes small business aircraft, which are classified based on the number of seats they carry and range in size from single-seaters to large turboprops with more than ten seats.
The private aviation segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to growing demand for charter flights across various regions including Asia Pacific, North America, and Europe. Demand for luxury travel is surging due to rising disposable income levels coupled with an increase in spending capacity among consumers globally; this trend is expected drive passenger traffic at private airlines that use FBOs as their base aerodrome operating units worldwide over the next few years.
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific dominated the global market in 2017 and is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. The growth of this region can be attributed to increasing air traffic, rising disposable income, and expanding hub-and-spoke aviation network in China. In addition, growing demand for low fares by consumers has led to an increase in new entrants into the industry. Moreover, a rise in international travel due to improved economic conditions is anticipated to drive regional growth over the forecast period.
North America accounted for a significant share of global revenue owing to high demand from U.S., which accounts for approximately 40% of all commercial flights worldwide as well as being one of largest hubs airport operators across various FBO categories such as fueling (hangaring), tie down (parking), and fueling (aircraft rental).
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for general aviation services: The global fixed-base operator market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 5% from 2016 to 2020. This growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for general aviation services, especially in emerging markets such as China and India.
- Proliferation of small airports: The number of small airports is increasing rapidly, which is driving the growth of the FBO market. These airports are typically located near major metropolitan areas and cater to business and recreational flyers.
- Expansion of private jet fleets: The number of private jets worldwide has been growing steadily in recent years, driven by rising income levels and increased globalization. This is benefiting the FBO market as operators are increasingly outsourcing their ground handling needs to specialized service providers such as FBOs.
