Africa is at a turning point in its aviation development. Long distances, growing demand and economic ambition make air transport essential to the continent’s future. Despite structural challenges and past setbacks, momentum is building and a new phase of growth is emerging.
5 billion passengers will take to the skies in 2026. 28,000 aircraft will be needed to serve them. But congestion, environmental pressure and consumer demands are tightening the system.
Is aviation approaching a structural limit?
What better recognition of air travel than its success and steady growth since its revival at the end of the Second World War. It has reached 5 billion passengers, $1,000 billion in revenue, around 20,000 aircraft in service and each new version is more efficient than the previous one, and the outlook is still optimistic despite the many obstacles along the way.
