The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has adjusted its outlook for air bongdaso in 2025, predicting a total of69 million tonnesof air bongdaso to be transported during the calendar year.
This projection represents a0.6% increasecompared to 2024 but falls significantly below the previously estimated72.5 million tonnes.
In 2024, air bongdaso volumes grew by an impressive11.3%.However, airlines are expected to see bongdaso-based revenues decrease by4.7%,dropping to2 billionin 2025.
Drivers of Decline
The downward revision reflects concerns over reduced global GDP growth, which is anticipated to slow from3.3% in 2024to2.5% in 2025.IATA attributes the sluggish growth to“trade-dampening protectionist measures,”such as tariffs, which continue to pose challenges to global trade flows.
In addition, bongdaso yield is expected to decline by5.2%,driven by reduced demand growth and falling oil prices.
Despite these challenges, IATA noted some resilience in the air bongdaso market, withdemand in April 2025 increasing by 5.8% year-on-year.
Navigating Uncertainty
The broader global environment remains uncertain, with conflicts like theRussia–Ukraine warexerting significant influence on aviation and airfreight operations. IATA indicated that any resolution or easing of such conflicts would be welcomed by the industry.
A Mixed Outlook for 2025
Willie Walsh, IATA’s Director General, acknowledged the“significant uncertainties”faced by global markets in the first half of 2025.
“By many measures, including net profits, 2025 will still be a better year for airlines than 2024, though slightly below our previous projections,” Walsh explained.
He added, “We anticipate airlines transporting more passengers and bongdaso in 2025 than in 2024, even if earlier demand projections have been tempered by trade tensions and declining consumer confidence.”
Industry Resilience and Broader Performance
While bongdaso-related revenues face challenges, the overall airline industry—including passenger services—paints a more positive picture. Falling oil prices are expected to contribute to improved profitability for airlines, even amidst a slowing global economy.
Aircraft Backlog Challenges Persist
IATA highlighted ongoing issues with aircraft manufacturing and delivery schedules. As of 2025, the global backlog of aircraft orders stands at over17,000, representing a14-year wait timefor delivery.
This year,1,692 aircraftare expected to be delivered, the highest annual total since 2018. However, this figure remains26% belowprojections made a year ago.
Supply chain disruptions are expected to continue throughout 2025 and possibly into the next decade.
“Manufacturers continue to let their airline customers down,” Walsh stated. “The frustration across the industry is palpable. The possibility that these issues could persist until the end of the decade is simply unacceptable,” he emphasized.
