India and China are set to drive passenger traffic growth in the Asia-Pacific region over the next two years as the global airline industry enters a stronger financial phase, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) said in its latest outlook released in Geneva.
IATA expects airlines in the Asia-Pacific region to post $6.6 billion in net profit in 2026, supported largely by India’s expanding aviation market and China’s recovery-led demand.
