• Counterbalance Statements: Increasing the cybersecurity by using strong passwords, updating the software, and turning on multi-factor authentication, can help in preventing the market expansion from impeding.

Opportunities:

Incorporation of Advanced Technologies May Fuel Market Growth in the Upcoming Years

Business jet MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul), is a critical aspect of the aviation industry. Some of its latest advancements include 3D printing technology, applying artificial intelligence for data analysis, and robotics. These advancements can be used to perform maintenance on parts of an aircraft that are hard to reach. Integrating these advanced technologies in this industry can fuel the market growth in the impending years.

• For instance, in September 2024, GE Aerospace, announced its approach on the new Services Technology Acceleration Center (STAC). This facility will be launching several new advanced inspection technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) guided white light robot inspections. These technologies aim at simplifying the MRO process.

The business jet MRO market is categorized into MRO type, aircraft type, end-user, and region.

MRO Type

On the basis of MRO type, the market can be categorized into engine MRO, component MRO, interior MRO, airframe MRO, avionics MRO, field maintenance, and others. The engine MRO segment has the highest business jet MRO market share due to the growing need to inspect, repair, and overhaul aircraft as there is an increasing demand for new aircraft engines, and it also ensures the reliability, efficiency, and safety of aircraft propulsion systems.

Aircraft Type

Based on aircraft type, the market can be classified into light size, mid-size, large cabin, ultra-long-range aircraft, and others. The large cabin segment has the highest market share due to the increasing demand for business travel after the COVID-19 pandemic.

• For instance, in October 2024, according to Honeywell, business jet operators will need 8500 new jets in the next 10 years, reflecting what the company calls “normalising” and “stable” demand for business aircraft following the pandemic-era boom. Of the 8500 new business jets, one third will be large-cabin types as it is spatial and there will be enough distance between passengers.

End-User

The market is segmented into business jet operators, aircraft manufacturers, government and regulatory bodies, and others, based on end-user. The business jet operators segment has the highest market share as there is an increase in demand for business or private jets from high net-worth individuals and corporate companies, and to modernize fleets.

Region

Regionally, the business jet MRO market can be categorized into North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, and the Middle East & Africa.

North America: North America has the largest business jet MRO market share as there is an increase in charter services in this region, resulting in providing maintenance, repair, and overhaul activities to the MRO service providers and the OEMs in the region.

• For instance, in September 2024, Safran Aircraft Engines announced, the contemplated acquisition of the American company CRT (Component Repair Technologies), a world leader in the repair of aircraft engine parts, based in Mentor, Ohio. By adding CRT, Safran Aircraft Engines will strengthen its maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) capabilities in the Americas.  CRT, which has over 450 employees, is specialized in the repair of large parts (cases, rotating parts) for the CFM56, LEAP and large turbofan engines.

Asia Pacific: Asia Pacific is estimated to have the highest business jet MRO market growth rate during the forecast period as there is a projected growth in pre-owned business jet sales region, along with the requirement of advanced cockpit and new cabin interior retrofits.

• For instance, in September 2024, Fokker Services Asia, a subsidiary of the Fokker Services Group (FSG), was appointed as an Embraer authorized service center. The agreement was finalized during the Aviation Week MRO Asia Pacific 2024 event in Singapore, and it enabled Fokker Services Asia to offer maintenance services for Embraer's first-generation E-Jets and business jets, which focused on the E190 aircraft. This new certification marked a significant milestone for both FSG and Embraer, as it enhanced FSG's service capabilities in the Asia Pacific region and extends Embraer's support network in a rapidly expanding market.
