Industry Overview
The increasing number of air passengers is encouraging airline operators to enhance passenger experience during flights. The business and first-class passenger segments are the major revenue contributors for airline operators. Many airline operators are adopting aircraft connectivity solutions and are providing in-flight Wi-Fi to passengers traveling in first class and business class. The American Airlines recently installed satellite-based broadband Wi-Fi in its entire fleet of 700 aircraft. Singapore Airlines also has started offering unlimited free Wi-Fi services to its passengers traveling in the first class.
Moreover, regulatory bodies across the world are amending regulations to promote the use of electronic devices in aircraft. For instance, in December 2018, regulatory bodies in India introduced Flight and Maritime Connectivity Rules to enable passengers to surf the Internet and make calls using their devices. These factors are expected to drive the growth of the global aircraft wireless routers market size during the forecast period.
Moreover, crucial aircraft wireless routers market trends such as the advancements in satellite-based internet services will also influence market growth. SpaceX, under its project called Starlink, is planning to deploy 12,000 satellites in Earth's orbit by 2027 to provide high-speed, low-latency, and affordable internet services. Similarly, Inmarsat's GX Aviation is providing enhanced connectivity for onboard passengers in aircraft through a network of High-Throughput Satellites (HTS). As airlines are increasingly adopting connected technology solutions to reduce time and costs associated with maintenance, the demand for advanced solutions such as Starlink and GX Aviation are expected to increase. This will have a positive impact on the global aircraft wireless routers market size during the forecast period. As a result of these factors, the market will register a CAGR of more than 12% during 2019-2023.
