Global Jet Bridge Market Report by Product, by Distribution Channel, by Gender, & by Region with Forecast 2017-2030

Global Jet Bridge Market Overview

Jet Bridge facilitates the movement of passengers from terminal gates to flights. Jet bridges also known as aerobridge depends upon the aircraft size, height and fuel position. Jets bridges do not let the passenger exposure to outer environment, which is beneficial in course of extreme weather conditions like snow or rain. As per customer demands, the jet bridges are tailored and developed in-house. Technology innovation provides advanced controls for operator assisted docking, making flights turn faster and smoother. At large airports two smaller jets such as Boing 737s or Airbus A320s can be accommodated through single terminal gate simultaneously. Smaller airports usually don’t use jet bridges, instead they opt for flight stairs or wheelchair lifts. Terminal gate allow one aircraft to park at a time, thus disadvantages of jet bridges occurs at the airports short of terminals, when airlines removes the jet bridges to accommodate two or more regional aircrafts per gate.

Goldstein Market Intelligence analyst forecast that the global jet bridge market size is set to growing at a CAGR of 8.2% over the forecast period. The technological developments, manufacturers, aircraft traffic, airport infrastructure development, number of terminal gates, size and height of the aircraft are some the factors boosting the growth of global jet bridge market.

Drivers and Challenges to Market Growth

Jet bridge technology advancement is in trend that impedes the growth of global jet bridge market. Aggressive R&D is in process towards automating the docking technology. Proper docking is necessary to avoid any delays and mishaps, and the innovative technology can automate the docking process with precision. Singapore Technologies Engineering is set to develop this technology over the next 5-6 years.

The investments made on the airport infrastructure by different governments for the convenience, accessibility, and lasting impression on the travellers at the airport, is the major driving factor impacting the growth of the jet bridges at the airports, equipped with advanced technology.

Jet bridges are still lagging in the automation processes while docking, loading and unloading the passengers. Cases have been registered of the jet bridge failure, resulting in casualties. The major reason behind these accidents is improper bridging and docking.

Market Share By Product Type & By Region

Based on geography, North America accounted for largest market share of 44.6% in 2017 of the total global jet bridge market. North America has largest number of airports, which are well equipped with jet bridges. Europe has largest number of jet bridge manufacturers such as FMT and Adelte that accounts for the growth of Europe jet bridge market at a rate of 9.3% annually. Asia-Pacific jet bridge market, over the forecast period is expected to escalate at a CAGR of 8.73%, on the back of rising aircraft traffic, tourism and airport infrastructure development in the countries such as Indonesia, Singapore, New Zealand, which are among the top airport rankers.  

On the basis of product type, over-the-wing bridges segment accounted for largest market share in 2017, for its advantages over the turnaround time taken by aircrafts, which is reduced by 50%, and the complete docking system once it is started, is entirely computer controlled. Movable jet bridges are advantageous over the use of fixed jet bridges on account of the adjustments made as per the aircraft size and turning angles. Thus, movable jets segment is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.3% over the forecast period.
