Global commercial aircraft production and demand
Overview
Major aircraft manufacturers Airbus and Boeing have reported increased delivery volumes in 2026. Airbus saw a 9 percent increase in year-to-date deliveries compared to 2025, despite temporary production delays for the A330 family. Boeing also reported its highest eight-month delivery volume since 2018, driven largely by the 737 MAX.
Airbus leadership indicates that demand remains robust in the Asia-Pacific and Middle East regions, even amidst geopolitical tensions and supply chain challenges. Long-term forecasts for the 2026–2045 period suggest a requirement for approximately 42,000 new aircraft, with 45 percent of that demand originating in the Asia-Pacific region. While China’s growth forecast was slightly revised downward due to macroeconomic factors, urbanization is expected to continue driving infrastructure and route needs. India is projected to maintain the strongest domestic growth rate at 9.3 percent.
