Inclusion of Technologies such as 5G and IoTs is Fuels Middle East & Africa Airport Hub Network Communication Market

According to IATA, air travelers are expected to reach 8.2 billion by 2037. Also, increased air traffic leads to more flights, where communication between the airport and airline authorities is vital for efficient airport operations and flight management. As such, the rising number of air passengers requires the aviation sector to be fully equipped to handle this increased air traffic. Hence, airports and airlines will require strong capabilities, such as Airport 4.0 or Airport Digitalization, to handle the growing passenger count. IoT connectivity in the airport hubs allows them to connect their existing or new hardware systems to the internet, contributing to greater transparency, connectivity, simplified work processes, and better communication between the airline and the airport authorities. Improved connectivity further provides better security and workflow efficiencies across all flight phases, from arrival to departure.

In addition, deploying 5G technologies in the aviation sector provides greater bandwidth for communication networks through greater speed and enhanced network communication quality. The high-speed internet and 5G technology capabilities enhance the frequencies of the communication information over the network, leading to the distribution of correct and accurate information and smoothening the security and business operations. Technologies such as 5G and IoTs deployed by the airport hub network communication providers will help improve customers' overall network communication. For example, SITA’s Connect Corporate upgraded the airport and airline entities with increased bandwidth for seamless data exchange. It also provides the SITA Airport Hub platform for enabling reliable and flexible communication between airports and airlines while supporting critical automated systems. Thus, with 5G and IoT technologies, service providers can improve the overall connectivity of devices required for faster network communication, creating lucrative growth opportunities for the airport hub network communication market.

Middle East & Africa Airport Hub Network Communication Market Overview

Growing collaborations among governments of various countries, civil aviation authorities, and regional airline associations contribute to efficient operations of the aviation sector in the MEA. A few of the major entities of the MEA are IATA, the African Airlines Association (AFRAA), the African Civil Aviation Commission (AFCAC), the Arab Air Carriers Organization (AACO), the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO-MID, ESAF, and WACAF), airports, air navigation service providers, and other regional airline associations. These entities are focused on maintaining safety, enhancing operations, and regulating the effective infrastructure development of the airports, which is increasing the demand for robust and effective network communication for airport management. In addition, due to the rise in e-commerce and trading activities in the region, the cargo shipments are delivered via air, which is increasing the use of airlines. For instance, according to IATA, the cargo tonne-kilometers (CTKs) in the Middle East had increased by 9.1% in March 2021 compared to March 2019, and CTKs in Africa grew by 23.1% in the same period. Thus, increased cargo transport via air contributes to increased flight operations and communication, which drives the airport hub network communication market in the MEA.

Further, according to IATA, Middle Eastern airlines experienced an increase of 43.1% in air traffic in March 2023, and Africa witnessed a growth of 71.7% in the same period. As the traffic grows, the airports and airlines rely on efficient network communication to manage and coordinate various flight operations, which effectively contributes to the demand for airport hub network communication solutions
