The Global Aircraft Seating Market size was valued at around USD 8.7 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 11.53 billion by 2030. Along with this, the market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of around 4.80% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-30, cites MarkNtel Advisors in the recent research report. The surge in airplane production, the growing popularity of urban mobility, and the increasing aircraft production are facilitating market growth.

In recent years, the net disposable income of individuals in developed nations has substantially increased, resulting in higher travel & tourism. A large portion of consumers prefer to travel via airplane since they offer more convenience and a shorter travel time to reach the destination. This increasing travel activity is leading to air traffic, and to cater to this growing demand, airline companies are increasingly purchasing planes. This is consequently enhancing the demand for the seats and other essential components, augmenting the size & volume of the Global Aircraft Seating Market.

Additionally, the carbon emissions caused by aircraft are also increasing, owing to which aircraft companies are increasingly developing electric aircraft. These aircraft have requirements for the next-generation seating material to maintain the weight of the airplane in a desired range. Thus, the growing manufacturing of these types of aircraft would continue to improve the requirement for new & innovative seat components.

Further, the rising inclination towards the celebrity & VIP culture is elevating the sales of the business jets. These jets are highly customizable, and the users change the seating covers & aesthetics based on their preferences. Thus, the increasing ownership rates of jet planes are increasing the market demand, further states the research report, “Global Aircraft Seating Market Analysis, 2025.”

Global Aircraft Seating Market Segmentation Analysis

Wide Body Aircraft (WBA) Holds the Largest Market Share

Based on aircraft type, the market is further bifurcated into Narrow Body Aircraft (NBA), Wide Body Aircraft (WBA), Very Large Aircraft (VLA), Business Jets, and Regional Transport Aircraft (RTA). Among them, the WBA holds a noteworthy market share of around 42% in the Global Aircraft Seating Market. These aircraft generally have a higher seating capacity than the other types of aircraft, owing to which they easily accommodate more passengers at a time. Thus, airline operating companies are increasingly choosing these aircraft to carry more travelers and earn better revenue. This amplified demand for the WBA is resulting in the higher production of these types of aircraft, consequently uplifting the market demand.

North America Spearheads Global Aircraft Seating Industry

North America holds a substantial share of nearly 31% in the Global Aircraft Seating market. The North American nations have the majority of the aircraft manufacturing facilities; therefore, there is consistent demand for the seats in these nations. Moreover, these nations have been of the most popular travel destinations as tourists from across the globe are arriving in the US & Canada for business conferences, leisure experiences, and medical treatments. This rise in air travel is resulting in the expanded usage of the airplane and might deteriorate the seats and other components of the airliners. Hence, flight operating companies are increasingly ensuring the retrofitting and replacement of the seats at regular intervals, supporting market growth.

Competitive Landscape

With strategic initiatives, such as mergers, collaborations, and acquisitions, the leading market companies, including Zodiac Aerospace (Safran), Collins Aerospace, Geven, RECARO Aircraft Seating, Jamco, HAECO, Lufthansa Technik, Stelia Aerospace, Zim Flugsitz, Acro Aircraft Seating, and others, are looking forward to strengthening their market positions.
