Market Overview:
The global in-flight connectivity market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 10.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth of the market can be attributed to the increasing demand for in-flight connectivity services among passengers and airlines, and rising investments by aircraft manufacturers for in-flight connectivity hardware and services. In terms of type, the hardware segment is expected to hold a larger share of the market during the forecast period, owing to rising demand for in-flight Wi-Fi systems from airlines and passengers. However, with advancements being made in satellite technology, the service segment is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. In terms of application, general aviation is expected to hold a larger share of the market during 2018–2030 due its high adoption rate across different regions.
Product Definition:
In-flight Connectivity (IFC) is a term used to describe the various methods of providing internet access and/or telephone service to passengers on board an aircraft. IFC can be provided through a variety of means, including air-to-ground systems, satellite systems, or wireless local area networks. The importance of In-flight Connectivity has increased in recent years as more and more passengers demand access to the internet while traveling. Airlines are increasingly offering IFC as a standard amenity on all flights, and many airports are now providing free Wi-Fi service throughout the airport terminals.
Hardware:
Hardware is the part of technology that enables communication between two devices or between one device and the network. Hardware components in an aircraft include modems, gateways, satellitephones, and Wi-Fi antennas. The hardware market for in-flight connectivity is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing use of e-connectivity services by airlines across the globe.
Service:
Service is a mechanism that enables two-way communication between the ground station and the aircraft. It includes both voice and data services, which are used for passenger information, cabin service, in-flight entertainment (IFE) and ad-hoc emergency communications.
Application Insights:
The general aviation segment held the largest share of over 60.0% in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the increasing demand for connectivity features, such as Wi-Fi, GPS and communication devices in this sector. General aviation aircraft are typically small single-engine propeller planes that can seat fewer than 20 passengers and are used for short flights between cities or towns at a lower altitude where air traffic is controlled by ground facilities rather than satellite navigation systems. These types of aircraft have become popular due to their ability to fly long distances with ease, efficiency and economy; they also offer an immersive experience owing to advanced entertainment systems installed on board these jetski like flying machines which include flat panel TVs with high resolution audio speakers along with themeatables cooked by chefs from Michelin starred restaurants across the world¢â‚¬â„¢s finest hotels.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global in-flight connectivity market in 2017. The region is expected to maintain its position during the forecast period. North America has a large number of aircraft manufacturers and thus, it attracts many service providers as well as users for IN-flight connectivity services. Moreover, increasing demand for Wi-Fi on board aircraft is further driving growth in this region.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest growing regional market over the forecast period owing to rising disposable income and increased adoption of smartphones among passengers, thereby creating opportunities for revenue generation through various applications such as e-commerce, entertainment & media streaming etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for in-flight connectivity services from airline passengers due to the growing use of smartphones and other portable electronic devices
- Proliferation of broadband satellite technologies that can provide high-quality in-flight connectivity services at a lower cost
- Airlines are increasingly adopting in-flight Wi-Fi as a way to differentiate their products and attract more customers
- The increasing number of air passengers who travel for business purposes is also driving demand for in-flight Wi-Fi services
- Regulatory changes that allow airlines to monetize their passenger data through the sale of advertising or other means
