Global Glider Aircraft Market Size study & Forecast, by Type (Sailplane, Hang glider, Para gliders), by Application (Commercial, Military) and Regional Analysis, 2023-2030


Global Glider Aircraft Market is valued at approximately USD 3515.8 million in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 9.9 % over the forecast period 2023-2030. A glider, also known as a sailplane, is a type of unpowered aircraft that is designed to fly without the use of an engine. Gliders are typically lightweight, aerodynamically efficient, and have long, slender wings that allow them to stay aloft by using the natural forces of lift and gravity. They are often used for recreational soaring, competitive gliding, and some specialized applications. The Glider Aircraft Market is expanding because of factors such as the rising tourism industry and increasing numbers of air travelers. Moreover, increasing numbers of air travelers have a potential impact on the Glider Aircraft Market.

Moreover, the tourists are increasingly seeking unique and memorable experiences. Glider rides offer an extraordinary and unforgettable way to explore destinations, making them an attractive option for tourists looking for something beyond traditional sightseeing. According to the Statista in 2021, the United States emerged as the largest commercial air travel market, witnessing over 666 million passengers boarding planes operated by American and international airlines. China followed as the second-largest market, with more than 440 million passengers, while Europe ranked third with nearly 252 million passengers. The growing tourism industry positively impacts the Glider Aircraft Market by generating increased demand for gliding experiences and driving the need for glider aircraft. According to Statista, in 2023, it is anticipated that the significant increase in both inbound and outbound travelers worldwide between 2022 to 2023. The number of global inbound travelers is estimated to experience a growth of approximately 15.5% in 2023, while the volume of outbound travelers is expected to rise by nearly 16% during the same period. In addition, the continues technological advancement is anticipated to create the lucrative opportunity for the market during projected period. However, the high cost of glider aircraft and lack of awareness stifles market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.

The key regions considered for the Global Glider Aircraft Market study includes Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. North America dominated the market over the forecast period owing to, increasing military spending, advancements in technology, and a supportive regulatory environment in the region. Asia Pacific fastest growing region over the forecast period owing to factors such as increased focus on research and development in the aviation sector to address air pollution concerns also rising tourism and recreational activities in the region.
