The increasing air passenger traffic is expected to propel the growth of the aviation asset management market going forward. Air passenger traffic refers to the number of passengers who have booked a flight. Aviation asset management helps passengers travelling in the air by reducing customer complaints and minimizing users' downtime. For instance, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), a Canada-based trade association of the world's airlines, overall air traveler numbers are expected to reach 4. 0 billion in 2024. Therefore, the rise in air passenger traffic is driving the aviation asset management market.

The increasing demand for cargo charters is anticipated to drive the growth of the aviation asset management market in the future. Cargo charters are specialized air transportation services where individuals or organizations rent an entire aircraft to transport cargo, usually for time-sensitive, oversized, or high-value shipments. Aviation asset management plays a crucial role in cargo charters by ensuring the availability, maintenance, and strategic allocation of aircraft to meet the specific needs of cargo transport, thereby optimizing operations and maximizing resource utilization. For example, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), a Canada-based trade association, available Cargo Tonne-Kilometers (ACTKs) - a metric for global air cargo capacity - reached new heights in December. This increase, primarily fueled by the growth of international passenger belly capacity, led to a 13.6% year-on-year rise in December's ACTK. As a result, the total air cargo capacity for 2023 ended with an 11.3% increase compared to 2022. Thus, the rising demand for cargo charters is propelling the growth of the aviation asset management market.
