Market Synopsis

Airport Size Analysis

"Growing passenger traffic coupled with an increasing need for real-time data sharing among the consumers will spur revenue growth during the forecast period."

Airport business and operation models support the explosive growth in the global airline industry. In addition, regulatory reform in North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and a few emerging countries is projected to shape a vivid traffic growth for airline passengers. For instance, according to the International Airport Review, global passenger traffic was around 8.8 billion in 2018 and is expected to double its capacity by 2030.

Decreasing costs in air travel, growing economies, and an incipient middle-class level in emerging countries with large populations will create a wave of new potential air travelers, thereby increasing the demand for class B airports. Therefore, the aforementioned factor is expected to drive the demand for the airport identification system market.

Function Analysis

"Increasing number of frequent flyers and growing demand towards real-time data tracking system to drive the market growth." 

The departure control systems (DCS) have reached substantial popularity due to the provision for e-ticket management using interfaces from various devices like online check-in, check-in kiosks, and mobile boarding cards. SITA, Amadeus, and Damarel are a few leading developers of departure control systems (DCS) offering innovative solutions for airline passengers globally. For instance, in June 2018, Amadeus IT Group S.A. announced a global partnership with Adobe Experience Cloud to improve airlines' capabilities, thereby delivering complete digital experiences to air travelers.

Regional Analysis

"Increasing per capita income, demand for advanced kiosks and enhanced research and development in the field of the aviation sector to drive the market growth."

North America is expected to dominate the market during the forecast period, assisted by the U.S. and Canada. In addition, increasing research and development and rising technological advancement in the airport information systems to expand the airport information system market in this region. For instance, favorable passenger services like web check-in and home printing of boarding passes save valuable time and evade long queues at airports. Moreover, increasing use of smartphones among passengers and airlines fuels the market growth for airport information systems across the region.
