Increasing Orders and Deliveries of Narrow Body Aircraft Fuel North America Flight Planning Software Market

The aviation industry has matured rapidly over the years, recording a significant number of aircraft production and deliveries. This has showcased massive order volumes for various commercial aircraft manufacturers worldwide. Commercial aviation is foreseen to surge in the coming years with an increase in air travel passengers and aircraft volumes. The increase in orders of narrow-body passenger and commercial aircraft across the globe drives the demand for flight planning software. After the COVID-19 pandemic and ongoing geopolitical wars in Europe and the Middle East, the global economy is weakening. However, people's desire to travel and the flow of travel have increased. In addition, the rapid growth of secondary and tertiary airports has continued due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Hence, airlines plan to expand to more remote locations by launching routes to smaller city airports. With the increasing number of aircraft and airports, the demand for flight planning software is also rising.
