Key Market Trends

Economy Class Segment to Experience the Highest Growth During the Forecast Period

The economy class segment of the market is anticipated to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. All the airlines around the world are modernizing their cabin interior to enhance the passenger experience. Airlines are opting for new aircraft seats integrated with in-seat over the traditional aircraft seats. For instance, in May 2019, Lufthansa took the delivery of its first Airbus A321neo, which is the first in its fleet to feature an enhanced economy class cabin. Economy class seats are provided by Geven that comes with additional cushioning, increased recline, additional personal space as well as USB power outlets. With such deliveries in the schedule during the forecast period, the demand for in-seat power is anticipated to be boosted. Also, the bring-your-own-device entertainment strategy of airlines has increased the requirement of convenient power access onboard due to which airlines are retrofitting in-seat power systems. Recently in 2019, Astronics launched the EmPower Xpress on-seat USB outlet as a new in-seat power retrofit solution for airlines, which can be attached quickly and directly on the installed seat tubes. This solution offers instant USB charging options with simple maintenance turns. Such developments are anticipated to propel the growth of the market during the forecast period.

Asia-Pacific Region is Expected to Generate the Highest Demand During the Forecast Period

Asia-Pacific region is expected to generate the highest demand for commercial aircraft in-seat power system market during the forecast period. This increasing demand is mainly due to the increasing orders and deliveries of new aircraft, propelled by ever-growing passenger traffic in the region. Along with the new orders, the airlines in the region continue to invest in upgrading and modernizing their seats and related equipment to compliment the services provided to the onboard passengers. As part of modernizing their fleet of narrow-body aircraft, many major airlines have selected Astronics to provide its EmPOWER in-seat power systems for their aircraft. These retrofits are scheduled to be completed by the end of 2025. These modernization plans along with a growing fleet of new aircraft are anticipated to bolster the growth of the region during the forecast period.

Competitive Landscape

The major players in the commercial aircraft in-seat power system market are Astronics Corporation, KID-Systeme GmbH, Imagik International Corp, Mid-Continent Instrument Co. Inc., and Inflight Canada Inc. Astronics Corporation holds a major share in the market as it provides in-seat power systems for commercial aircraft manufactured by Boeing, and Airbus. With high brand value and innovative products, Astronics is being selected by many major airlines to retrofit their seats with Astronics in-seat power systems.
