The global commercial aircraft in-seat power system market is expected to reach USD 56.92 billion in 2024, and it is estimated to reach a valuation of USD 68.35 billion by the end of 2029, expanding at an annual growth rate of 3.73% during the forecast period.
The commercial in-seat power systems are the power units installed behind the sidewalls or underfloor panels of the aircraft. The in-seat powers system facilitate passenger to use and charge their electronic gadgets like smartphones, laptops, tablets, Mp3 player during travel. The in-seat power system facilities in now available in all seating classes such as Economy Class, Premium Economy, Business Class, and 1st Class. The economy class segment dominates the market to increase passenger traffic in the economy class. The Narrow-body aircraft is dominating the market due to its efficiency in long-haul routes and consuming fewer fuels, making it cost-effective. Due to less time and cost-effectiveness, the passengers will opt for these flights, which will boost the demand for an in-seat power system.
The increasing passenger traffic in economy class and increasing adoption of communication & entertainment devices compels the airline service provider to modernize the flight cabins and provide the power supply facility to charge their devices and enhance their traveling experience. Owing to these reasons, the passenger traffic with smart gadgets drives the growth of this market in the forecast period.
In North America, the United States is the largest market of commercial aircraft in-seat power systems due to the strong economy and high disposable income of the passenger. However, Asia-Pacific is expected to account for the large share in the forecast period due to growing passenger traffic in this region. In addition, China is expected to become the largest market in this region due to growing middle-class passenger traffic and government investment in up-gradation of existing flights and procurement of new flights increases the demand for in-seat power systems for modernization of existing and new flights, which in turn propel the growth of commercial aircraft in-seat power system market.
In addition, the number of passenger in the economy class is increasing due to the increasing population and income of the middle class, which further increase the demand for economy class. With the growing demand, all the airlines worldwide are modernizing their economy cabins interior (including in-set power system) to enhance the passenger experience.
The increasing usage of personal gadgets in flights, such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, MP3 players, etc., and increasing demand of bringing your device concept driving the need for an in-seat power system for facilitating passengers to charge their electronic gadgets. Earlier onboard power outlets facilities were only for business and 1st class passengers. Still, now passenger every class travel with some of the electronic devices like smartphones compels the airline's service providers to modernize their airline cabins with an in-seat power system, which fuels the growth of the in-seat power system market.
Several countries around the globe are increasing their spending on modernizing their commercial and military aircraft by adding an in-seat power system feature, which drives the demand for an in-seat power system in the market.
The major restraint of commercial aircraft in-seat power system market is rapid technological change and high initial and maintenance cost of in-seat power system installation, restricts the service providers to quickly invest on modernizing the aircraft which hamper the growth of the market future.
