Europe InFlight Wifi Market Demand & Opportunity Outlook 2021

The European in-flight Wi-Fi market is anticipated to register a healthy CAGR rate of >18% during 2015-2021. With a larger proportion of the European population getting access to the internet, the desire of the population to remain connected while travelling in air is expected to impel which would drive the in-flight Wi-Fi market in the region.

In addition to that, rising penetration of smartphones and formulation of favorable guidelines by the aviation authorities (Federal Aviation Administration in the U.S. allowed use of portable electronic devices in the planes) for the use of in-flight Wi-Fi services inside an aircraft would further bid to boost the airborne wireless connectivity market over the next few years. In terms of market size, Germany is projected be the most attractive market for the in-flight Wi-Fi providers and investors during the covered forecast period.

The reason behind this could be attributed to the steps taken by the major in-flight Wi-Fi providing airline company of Germany i.e. Lufthansa to switch to narrow and slim seats in order to accommodate more passengers in its shorter distance flights in the coming 4-5 years.

In terms of highest compound annual growth rate (CAGR), rest of Europe is expected to be the most attractive market of in-flight Wi-Fi in future
The GDP growth in the European region has slowed down in the past one year owing to a negative impact of the Greek recession in the European economy. Due to this slowdown of the European economy, the year-on-year (Y-O-Y) growth rate in almost all the European countries would witness a continuous decline during 2015-2016 as stated from the above graph.
