US aerospace giant Boeing has forecast a commercial aircraft market worth $3.2-trillion over the next ten years. In concrete terms, this would amount to 19 000 aircraft. As for demand over the next 20 years, the group estimates that this would amount to more than 43 000 new aeroplanes, with a total value of $7.2-trillion. Recovery in the air transport market is currently being led by domestic flights, it reported. Regional and intercontinental flights are expected to follow, as vaccine rollouts lead to relaxations in health-based travel restrictions. Boeing expects long-range commercial air traffic to reach pre-pandemic (2019) levels by 2023 or 2024.
