About
Rising oil prices, shifting geopolitics, and uncertain tariffs are affecting the aviation industry worldwide. As logistics, operations, and insurance costs rise, companies need to remain flexible and competitive while working with limited capacity. Ageing fleets, manufacturer delays, and cabin upgrades are driving up demand for airframe maintenance, but some regions lack sufficient hangar space to keep up. This session examines how different groups are working to improve efficiency in a tougher market, adjusting their plans and strategies as the geopolitical situation evolves. We will also discuss whether Asia-Pacific has enough capacity to keep pace with fleet growth and new traffic patterns, which airlines plan to expand, and what might happen if the industry faces overcapacity.
