Boeing<\/strong> is forecasting that China <\/strong>will need 8,560 new commercial airplanes through 2042, driven by economic growth well above the global average and increasing demand for domestic air travel. China’s commercial airliner fleet will more than double to nearly 9,600 jets over the next 20 years, according to Boeing’s Commercial Market Outlook (CMO), the company’s long-term forecast of demand for commercial airplanes and related services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its ongoing recovery of air travel, China will account for one-fifth of the world’s airplane deliveries in the next two decades, according to the CMO. China’s domestic aviation market also will be the largest in the world by the end of the forecast period, helping power demand for 6,470 single-aisle airplanes such as the Boeing 737 MAX family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Domestic air traffic in China has already surpassed pre-pandemic levels and international traffic is recovering steadily,” said Darren Hulst, Boeing vice president, Commercial Marketing. “As China’s economy and traffic continue to grow, Boeing’s complete line-up of commercial jets will play a key role in helping meet that growth sustainably and economically.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
