Private aviation witnessed a surge in newcomers, both in users and buyers, after the COVID-19 pandemic lifted demand for private flying as the wealthy took control of their travel. The flight activity is anticipated to stabilize in 2024 and grow in 2025, according to Honeywell. New users in business aviation have also increased demand by 500 aircraft and 6% more flights over the next 10 years.
