Global Aerospace Additive Manufacturing Market Key Driver

Air passenger traffic is expected to propel the growth of the aerospace additive manufacturing market going forward. Air passenger traffic refers to an increase in the number of passengers due to various reasons, such as work-related, business-related, and tourism-related. Air passenger traffic is prompting aircraft companies to arrange more domestic and international flights, which is resulting in increased aircraft manufacturing, which in turn is spiking the usage of aerospace additive manufacturing. For instance, in February 2023, according to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), a Canada-based group of world airlines, total passenger traffic rose by 64.4% in 2022 compared to 2021. The air traffic in December 2022 alone rose by 39.7% compared to December 2021. Therefore, the surge in passengers is driving the aerospace additive manufacturing market going forward, with its market size in 2023 being a 64.4% rise in total passenger traffic and in December 2022, a 39.7% rise in air traffic compared to December 2021.
