Cambridge, Mass. , April 27, 2020 - NSR’s Aeronautical Satcom Markets, 8th Edition report projects a viable long-term In-flight Connectivity (IFC) market, despite significant near-term challenges due to COVID-19. Coming off a challenging 2018 and 2019, 2020 has already seriously disrupted the IFC market, with air traffic down by at least 80% in most regions. However, longer-term opportunities remain – once air travel resumes, planes will still require ever more connectivity, yielding a market opportunity more than 2x larger than 2019, with US$ 5 Billion in annual retail revenues by 2029. The next 24 months will be a challenge, no doubt – but IFC plans are largely delayed, not cancelled.
