Airline Ancillary Services Market: Information by Service Type (A la carte features, Commission-based products, Frequent flyer activities, and others), by Carrier type (Full-service carrier and Low-cost carrier), and by Region — Global Forecast till 2023
Airline Ancillary Services Market Scenario
Ancillary services are support services provided by the airlines to enhance passenger comfort and travel experience. Nowadays, many airlines from ultra-low-cost carriers to premium legacy carriers are keen on exploring this aspect. Ancillary revenue refers to the revenue generated by airlines by all streams other than through sale of tickets. Some of the ancillary services provided by the airlines include sale of in-flight food & beverages, in-flight entertainment & connectivity solutions, excess baggage charges, additional charges for better seats, among others.
Factors such as increase in air passenger traffic and inclination of passengers towards availing ancillary services to enjoy air travel are the prime factors which positively impacts the airline ancillary services market growth. In addition, upcoming airlines (mainly LCCs) especially in the emerging economies further boosts the market growth. However, the volatility in fuel prices and airport charges hampers the growth of airlines which in-turn hinders the ancillary services market growth to a certain extent. Meanwhile, the emergence of BYOD concept and advancements in in-flight connectivity solutions create promising growth opportunities for the airline ancillary services market.
