To meet this growing demand, Boeing projects that the industry will need almost 44.000 new commercial aircraft for the year 2043. This remarkable expansion will not only transform the aviation landscape, but will also open up a world of career opportunities for those looking to enter this dynamic sector..

Regional aircraft 1,525
a hallway 33,380

freighters 1,005
Total 43,975

As for the work that these thousands of planes will generate, It is estimated that the industry commercial aviation will require about 2,4 million new employees to support fleet growth and ongoing operations. This considerable figure covers a wide range of essential roles, including:

  • pilots: Demand for qualified pilots will remain strong, as airlines prepare to welcome thousands of new aircraft in the coming years.
  • Maintenance Technicians: As the global aircraft fleet continues to age, There will be a growing need for qualified maintenance technicians to ensure the smooth operation and safety of aircraft.
  • Cabin Crew: Flight attendants and flight attendants play a critical role in the passenger experience, Therefore, the demand for cabin crew is expected to grow at the rate of increase in air traffic..

According to the last PTO, the airline industry will need the following new staff until 2043 to sustain the global commercial fleet:

  • 674.000 pilots
  • 716.000 maintenance technicians
  • 980.000 cabin crew.

concretely, for Latin America the need is expected 39 thousand pilots, 42 thousand technicians and 54 thousand new cabin crew, so with these positive numbers, Opportunities to work in the industry will be greater every day.

  1. Thank you very much for the information 👍 Mr. Larena, There I do not stop following him and I have a lot of FAITH that I will have a job of humility and simplicity even if it were not in the field where I work as an aviation mechanic, Whatever it is will be well received 🙏
