The airside services market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $7.21 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The anticipated growth in the forecast period can be ascribed to changing trends in air travel, a heightened emphasis on sustainability and adherence to environmental regulations, the incorporation of artificial intelligence (AI) and automation, developments in e-commerce and drone cargo logistics, and the expansion of emerging markets. Key trends in the forecast period encompass strategic collaborations, the integration of automation and robotics, real-time data analytics and AI, as well as the adoption of green and sustainable technologies and biometric technologies.
The expansion of the commercial aviation industry is anticipated to drive the growth of the airside services market in the future. Commercial aviation involves the operation of aircraft for commercial purposes, primarily for transporting passengers and cargo in exchange for monetary compensation. Airside services play a critical role in facilitating the smooth operation of commercial aviation, ensuring the safety, efficiency, and timely functioning of aircraft at the ground level of airports. As per a report from the Bureau of Transportation Statistics in March 2023, US airlines witnessed a 30% yearly increase, transporting 194 million more passengers in 2022 than in 2021. During January to December 2022, US airlines managed 853 million passengers (unadjusted), showing a significant rise from 658 million in 2021 and 388 million in 2020. Therefore, the expansion of the commercial aviation industry is a driving force behind the growth of the airside services market.
Increasing investments in airport infrastructure are poised to fuel the growth of the airside services market in the future. Investments in airport infrastructure involve financial commitments from various stakeholders, including governments, airport authorities, private investors, and other entities, to support the development, expansion, and enhancement of facilities and structures at airports. Investments in airport infrastructure lead to a heightened demand for airside services as new runways, taxiways, and terminals necessitate corresponding support services to manage aircraft movements and operations. According to the Airports Council International – North America (ACI-NA) in March 2023, the funding requirement for US terminal building projects increased from $40.10 billion in 2021-2025 to $63.20 billion in 2023-2027. Hence, increasing investments in airport infrastructure are propelling the growth of the airside services market.
Technological advancements represent a prominent trend gaining traction in the airside services market. Major companies operating in this market are embracing new technologies to maintain their market position. For example, in May 2023, Honeywell International Inc., a US-based technology and manufacturing company, introduced an enhanced suite of airside solutions, including the NAVITAS Smart Visual Docking system and integrated ramp management system. By combining an integrated ramp management system with cyber-secure airfield solutions, the arrival preparedness, docking process support, turnaround, and departure management are improved. The smart visual docking system enhances gate operation decision-making by providing more precise and informed information, optimizing gate operations and enhancing situational awareness for pilots and airside operations teams, resulting in shorter aircraft turnaround times.
Major companies in the airside services market are directing their efforts towards developing innovative solutions such as Software as a Service (SaaS). SaaS refers to a cloud computing model where software applications are provided over the internet on a subscription basis. For instance, in October 2023, Transoft Solutions, a Canada-based software company, launched the 'AeroCENTRAL' SaaS solution. This platform allows users to seamlessly share crucial airside infrastructure and operational information across teams and departments through a unified, centralized system. The scalable platform is readily accessible to diverse stakeholders and includes specialized applications designed for operational and technical planning activities.
In August 2022, Alliance Ground International, a US-based airline cargo handling services company, acquired Airport Terminal Services (ATS) for an undisclosed amount. This strategic acquisition will enable Alliance Ground International to expand its presence in the airport terminal and passenger side of the industry. Airport Terminal Services (ATS) is a US-based company that provides airside services.
