NEW YORK, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — By 2031, the global aviation fleet will be smaller than once projected because of the impact of COVID-19, and a decade of smaller fleets will mean constrained growth and consolidation, according to Oliver Wyman’s Global Fleet & Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) Forecast 2021-2031.

Airlines will not return to 2019 levels of operations until at least 2022, with recovery in parts of the aerospace market lagging by a year or two. For consumers, the slow recovery may mean fewer direct and less frequent routes — at least until the pandemic is under control and normal economic activity returns.

«COVID has created a long list of challenges never seen before in modern commercial aviation,» said Tom Cooper, an Oliver Wyman vice president and one of the authors of the report. «It will take the next few years for the fleet to adjust and return to stable growth, but even after 10 years, the industry will never fully regain all that it has lost from the pandemic. Right now, with many airlines still burning through millions of dollars each day, the focus must be cash flow management.»

At its lowest point during the pandemic, the global fleet had only about 13,000 aircraft in service, less than half the number flying in January 2020 as the outbreak began to spread. Today, the 2021 fleet is up to more than 23,700 aircraft. By 2031, we forecast the fleet will number more than 36,500. But it is still a far cry from pre-COVID projections, which put the 2021 global fleet at 28,800 and the 2030 fleet at more than 39,000.

Impact of less aircraft

Fewer aircraft flying means fewer planes need to be produced or repaired. Given the inventory backlog of new planes that are built but undelivered or unsold, more aircraft will be delivered to airlines over the next several years than will be produced by aerospace manufacturers. While production and deliveries are closely aligned in normal years, this imbalance reflects conflicting pressures on airframe manufacturers to balance the realities of lower market demand with needs of key suppliers to maintain enough production.

The impact of COVID on the MRO market will also be significant — both in the short and long terms.  Short term, demand in 2020 and 2021 is expected to be 33 percent, or $60 billion, below pre-COVID projections for the combined two years. Over the next 10 years, the industry will lose more than $95 billion in revenue compared with pre-COVID expectations.  

Bright spots

Despite the challenges, there are some hopeful signs. Deliveries of narrowbody aircraft are expected to hold up reasonably well, with cumulative deliveries approximately 90 percent of pre-COVID expectations over the 10 years. This class of aircraft tends to carry under 200 passengers and is benefiting from their smaller size, which makes them easier to fill during periods of lower travel demand.

In contrast, widebody aircraft deliveries and production could be as much as 40 percent below what had been predicted. This is due to falloff in international and business travel driven by changing corporate travel policies and government restrictions.

Despite significant short-term losses, the long-term outlook for MRO is a bright spot. Aftermarket providers will begin to see consistent growth over the mid and long terms, as the size of the fleet expands and the overall age increases. This will drive interest from private equity and other investors.

About the Global Fleet & MRO Market Forecast

The 2021-2031 edition of Oliver Wyman’s Global Fleet & MRO Market Forecast Commentary represents our more than two-decade commitment to the understanding and assessment of the commercial airline transport fleet and the associated maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market outlook. The commentary is the go-to resource of aviation executives—whether a manufacturer, operator, or aftermarket provider, as well as for those with financial interests in the sector through private equity firms and investment banks.

This year’s research focuses on the aviation industry’s recovery from COVID-19, subsequent growth and related trends affecting aftermarket demand, maintenance costs, technology, and labor supply after a devastating 2020. The outlook reveals significant challenges the industry faces as it develops and expands its recovery and rebound plans.  An interactive tool also accompanies the report for further exploration of the forecast.

PARSIPPANY, N.J., Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Wyndham Hotels & Resorts, the world’s largest hotel franchising company with approximately 9,000 hotels across 90 countries, today announced a new tail-wagging deal perfect for new pet parents in need of getaway. The well-known hotel company has teamed up with Rover, the nation’s largest network of five-star pet sitters and dog walkers, offering U.S. guests $30 off their first Rover pet service when they book a qualified stay at any By Wyndham hotel.

The timely collaboration comes as the U.S. experiences a surge in dog adoptions, sales and fostering amid the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, a recent poll of pet parents by Rover noted that nearly half had recently acquired a new dog during the pandemic. And a separate survey conducted by the American Pet Products Association, found that roughly two-thirds of American families own a pet, which they spent $96 billion on in 2019, a figure that many expect will only continue to grow. In working together, Wyndham and Rover hope to help everyday travelers save money and reduce travel anxiety—particularly as they think about traveling with, or away from, their new four-legged family members.

«With thousands of pet-friendly locations across the country, our hotels have always been a go-to for families with pets.» said Lisa Checchio, executive vice president and chief marketing officer, Wyndham Hotels & Resorts. «Many travelers are eager to start planning that next getaway. Our new partnership with Rover and their range of pet services will help pet owners take the guess work out of travel – helping them care for their pets at home or on the great American road trip.»

Rover counts more than 300,000 sitters among its network and connects pet owners with services such as dog boarding, house sitting, dog walking, doggy day care, drop-in visits and grooming in select markets. All new sitters pass a background check, provide a detailed profile and personal information, and are approved by Rover’s team of sitter specialists. Pet parents can find loving care in their neighborhood or on-the-road, making them the perfect complement to Wyndham’s more than 4,500 pet-friendly hotels across the U.S., including those under well-known brands like La Quinta® by Wyndham, Baymont® by Wyndham, Super 8® by Wyndham and Howard Johnson® by Wyndham, to name just a few.

«In joining forces with Wyndham, we’re making it easier for pet owners to travel with or without their pet. This serves our mission of making it easier for everyone to experience the love of a pet in their lives,» said Kate Jaffe, Trends Expert at Rover. «Wyndham’s pet-friendly hotels allow traveling pet parents to easily accommodate their pets. But not all travel activities are pet-friendly. That’s where Rover can help, offering peace of mind to travelers with easy to find, trusted local pet care.»

Promotional offer of $30 off is available only to new Rover customers and requires a qualified stay at any participating By Wyndham hotel. Travelers must book direct with Wyndham to qualify for the offer and complete their stay by December 31, 2021. Pet policies vary by hotel and may include certain restrictions on the type, size, and number of pets allowed. Additional hotel fees may apply. Learn more at www.wyndhamhotels.com/rover.

DUBLIN, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — The «Aircraft Weighing System Market Forecast to 2027 – COVID-19 Impact and Global Analysis by Type (Floor-standing and Platform), Application (Commercial Aviation and Military Aviation)» report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

According to this report the global aircraft weighing system market was valued at US$ 102.76 million in 2019 and is projected to reach US$ 133.03 million by 2027; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.2% from 2020 to 2027.

The global aircraft weighing system market includes a substantial number of market players operating in the market resulting in a fragmented global market. However, the market includes a selected number of prominent market players, such as HKM Messtechnik; NicolScales; McCoy Global Inc.; General Electrodynamics Corporation; Henk Maas; Intercomp; Jackson Aircraft Weighing Systems LLC; Langa Industrial S.A.; Vishay Precision Group, Inc; and Teknoscale OY, with substantial customer base and strong market positioning.

At present, the global aircraft weighing system market is principally dominated by the developed regions, such as North America and Europe, accounting for ~69.5% of the global market collectively. Significant factors, such as availability of rapid technological advancements, high disposable individual incomes, technological capabilities, presence of leading aircraft manufacturers, and presence of some of the well-established aircraft weighing system providers have contributed toward the significant consolidation of the market share in North America and Europe. APAC is anticipated to gain significant traction and expected to witness the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Rising MRO services, growing air traffic, and increasing number of low-cost carriers (LCCs) are some of the factors propelling the growth of the market in APAC.

Companies in the market are highly involved in offering aircraft weighing systems to the end users in order to gain traction in the market. For instance, in December 2017, HAECO Americas selected Intercomp for its AC60-LP platform scale systems for different HAECO Americas MRO locations. Intercomp’s aircraft scales offer high quality scales and accessories, ease of use, and solid-state technology. In the past years, HAECO used top-of-jack method for weighing operations; however, the swift deployment and weighing capabilities of the company’s platform scales provide MRO benefits with effectiveness and less time for the weighing procedure. In August 2020, Intercomp declared that Airborne Maintenance & Engineering Services, a US-based leading MRO, completed deployment and training on the company’s AC60-LP scale system. The accuracy and reliability provided by Intercomp’s weighing system is widely used among airlines, MROs, and airframe manufacturers globally.

On the contrary, due to ongoing pandemic, all the major regions, such as Europe, APAC, and North America, have imposed strict restrictions on business activities and movement of goods and people. These factors are anticipated to affect both supply of various aircraft components and parts as well as their demand. This, in turn, negatively impacts the revenue growth of the global aircraft weighing system market to some extent, especially in 2020 and early 2021.

Reasons to Buy:

• Save and reduce time carrying out entry-level research by identifying the growth, size, leading players and segments in the global aircraft Weighing system market
• Highlights key business priorities in order to assist companies to realign their business strategies
• The key findings and recommendations highlight crucial progressive industry trends in the global aircraft Weighing system market, thereby allowing players across the value chain to develop effective long-term strategies

Kelley Blue Book’s newest offerings featured at NADA 2021 include Kelley Blue Book® Instant Cash Offer Buying Signals and Featured Auto Repair Center.

«Last year was full of unexpected challenges and, ultimately, accelerated innovation. We are eager to maintain that momentum through our latest digital solutions,» said Randy Kobat, vice president of operations for Inventory Management Solutions at Cox Automotive. «And while some of 2020’s problems are rolling into 2021, acquiring profitable inventory and understanding consumers’ intent to purchase shouldn’t be negatively impacting your business by not knowing more about the consumers coming to your store.»

Kelley Blue Book® Instant Cash Offer Buying Signals Kelley Blue Book builds on its existing Instant Cash Offer tool to tap into data-driven insights to help unlock the full potential of dealerships’ Instant Cash Offers to customers. The industry-leading tool analyzes customer shopping behavior data from across Cox Automotive data sources to provide a more complete picture of the consumer, allowing for a more targeted approach to offers, and an understanding of their vehicle shopping preferences and purchase timeline without having to manually dig through data. In fact, Kelley Blue Book Instant Cash Offer leads with Buying Signals had a transaction completion rate nearly 24% better than leads without Buying Signals, whether the vehicle was sold through Instant Cash Offer or elsewhere, from July through October 2020.¹

«When a dealership starts the conversation knowing where customers are in their buying journey, they are taking a targeted approach to leads while providing a personalized customer experience,» said Kobat. «These actionable insights enable better engagement with consumers and a data-driven way to acquire profitable inventory.»

Kelley Blue Book Instant Cash Offer Buying Signals appear alongside the Instant Cash Offer within the Dealer Admin Tool and shoppers are tagged according to their purchase timeline, including «Casually Browsing,» «Actively Shopping,» and «Ready to Buy.» Plus, dealerships see shopping preferences like the year, make, model, mileage, and more.

«As an Instant Cash Offer client for many years, this tool has become a vital piece of our inventory acquisition process. Leveraging the data and information from one of the most trusted brands in the automotive market has helped us own more cars for less,» said Jonathan Hakes, used vehicle inventory director at Dorschel VW. «With new functionality from Kelley Blue Book’s Instant Cash Offer Buying Signals, we are eager to take our data-driven approach to the next level. The more we know about a customer, the better the experience we can deliver and make the most of that opportunity.»

Kelley Blue Book® Featured Auto Repair Center allows franchise dealers to turn KBB.com’s millions of service-ready consumer visits per month into new business. In fact, 63% of service customers coming from KBB.com are new to participating dealerships.² Consumers are increasingly looking for guidance on key maintenance, repair, and recall questions, including pricing.

SALZBURG, Austria and PADERBORN, Germany, Jan. 28, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Together with range, battery charging time is one of the key issues in electromobility. «Car owners don’t like the fact that the charging process currently still takes a relatively long time. They feel that this restricts their mobility and flexibility,» explains Dr. Rainer Lübbers, Executive Vice President of the responsible business unit at BENTELER Automotive. Shorter charging times are therefore a factor in promoting the politically desirable broad acceptance of electric vehicles. Up to now, however, the large amount of heat generated during charging at fast charging stations has proven to be an obstacle. With its high-pressure heat exchanger, BENTELER now offers an innovative solution for particularly effective and fast cooling.

Innovative, compact and powerful – and no bigger than a pack of cigarettes
The outstanding feature is: The BENTELER high-pressure heat exchanger is installed in the air conditioning circuit. «Coupling battery cooling and air conditioning in this way increases the cooling power available during charging. This shortens the battery charging time,» says Jens-Eike Jesau, the developer responsible. On the one hand, the battery and car interior can be optimally cooled while, on the other, the battery heat can be used to heat the passenger compartment when necessary.

The high-pressure heat exchanger from BENTELER uses CO₂ as the cooling medium. The natural refrigerant with the designation R744 is liquefied before entering the cooler. There it evaporates and absorbs the waste heat from the battery charging process. Thanks to the completely sealed system, no CO₂ can escape. The cooling capacity of the climate-friendly solution from BENTELER is significantly higher compared to conventional heat exchangers. We are proud to be able to offer this new solution to our e-mobility customers,» says Lübbers. «It’s backed up by our systems expertise as one of the leading global partners to the automotive industry.»
