Boeing’s 2022 Commercial Market Outlook (CMO) released earlier today predicts continued robust demand for dedicated freighters to support global supply chains and growing express networks.



Carriers will need 2,800 additional freighters overall, including 940 new widebody models in addition to converted narrow-body and widebody freighters over the forecast period. These insights were a part of Boeing’s2022 Commercial Market Outlook (CMO) that was launched today and which showcases the company’s annual long-term forecast, in advance of the Farnborough International Airshow.

The company also projected demand for more than 41,000 new airplanes through 2041, underscoring aviation industry resilience two years after the pandemic began. The CMO forecasts a market value of $7.2 trillion for new airplane deliveries, with the global fleet increasing by 80% through 2041 compared to 2019 pre-pandemic levels.

Approximately half of passenger jet deliveries will replace today’s models, improving the global fleet’s fuel efficiency and sustainability.
