In 2024, the total revenue for the aviation sector is $582 billion. By 2030, it is expected to reach $735 billion. In such a large and sensitive industry, the potential consequences of problems can be significant.
Weather Events in Aviation Sector
Weather events and meteorology play a crucial role in the aviation sector. The Federal Aviation Administration in the United States reported that approximately 75% of flight delays between 2017 and 2022 were weather-related. Flight delays negatively impact customer experience and costs for aviation businesses.
Cost
The annual total cost of flight delays in the long term averages $12.4 billion. This constitutes 15% of the total operating costs for all airlines. In the short term, the annual total delay cost averages $2.3 billion, which is 10% of total fuel and personnel expenses for airlines.
Customer Experience
The Net Promoter Score (NPS) is used to measure customer experience in various industries, ranging from -100 to 100. It helps businesses understand where they stand with their customers. You can look at the NPS scores for private aviation companies and see which ones experience the most delays. It’s clear that any aviation company with an NPS score below a certain level ends up on the list of airlines with the most delays.
