For the Middle East, one of the largest markets for wide-body planes due to the presence of huge connecting hubs, Airbus trimmed its forecast by 2% amid reports of overcapacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Included in the total demand forecast for wide-body jets were 940 large freighters, up 2% from the previous report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Demand in the busier segment for single-aisle passenger planes like the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737 series, which have a short to medium range, was revised up by 3% to 33,510 units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The planemaker&#8217;s predictions draw on economic forecasts suggesting 1.7 billion people will join the middle class, with some income available for air travel, in the next 20 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We see particularly strong growth in Asia and the Middle East, led particularly by India and China,&#8221; said Bob Lange, head of market analysis and forecasts at Airbus. &#8220;Domestic China (traffic) will overtake the U.S.,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data issued with the Airbus report highlighted the shift of attention to India, the most populous nation, with the top three fastest-growing traffic flows serving the Indian subcontinent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related Topics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wp-block-uagb-post-grid uagb-post-grid
