Airports
THE FASTEST
GROWING AVIATION MARKET IN THE WORLD
Massive
airport development projects, unprecedented airline expansions and ever-soaring
traffic are turning the wider Middle East into an aviation supplier’s dream.
Over US$60
billion has been earmarked for the development of aviation infrastructure across
the Middle East, Africa, Indian Subcontinent and CIS. The construction of brand
new airports, new terminals, concourses, runways and the modernisation of
existing facilities have been fuelled by a marked increase in tourist arrivals,
airline expansions and competition among regional aviation authorities. This
current boom is no temporary phenomenon, with future business potential for
airport industry suppliers set to gain momentum in the years ahead.
