Global aviation saw record-breaking activity in 2025, with 9.8 billion passengers and 131.2 million tonnes of air cargo handled. While international travel drove much of this growth, reports indicate a slowdown in the first half of 2026 due to economic and geopolitical pressures. According to the Airports Council International (ACI) World, international travel rose 6.1 percent in 2025, significantly outpacing domestic growth of 1.7 percent. While some corridors, such as Europe-to-Asia routes, showed strong growth of 12.1 percent in July 2026, global demand has faced volatility. In Brazil, the aviation sector has reached historic milestones. Between January and September 2026, the National Civil Aviation Agency (Anac) reported that 99.5 million total passengers traveled via domestic and international flights, a 4.2 percent increase over the same period in 2025. Domestic passenger numbers reached 76.8 million during this interval, marking the highest volume for this period since 2000. International travel also saw significant growth, with 22.7 million passengers recorded in the first nine months, representing a 7.2 to 7.3 percent increase over 2025. In September 2026 alone, international travelers reached a record high of 2.4 million, while air cargo saw an 11.1 percent increase. ~~Long-term projections from Airbus suggest Brazil will require nearly 1,000~~ To address environmental impacts, the Brazilian Ministry of Finance published new ~~aircraft to meet rising demand by 2045, as passenger numbers are projected~~ regulations for the aviation sector within the country’s regulated carbon market.
