Hold onto your boarding passes, aviation fans! 🛫 China is set to dominate the skies as the world's largest market for new aircraft over the next two decades, according to Safran China CEO Rémi Paul. In an interview with CGTN, he revealed that the country is projected to order over 8,000 new planes by 2043 – that’s a jaw-dropping 20% of global deliveries! 💺
Paul called China's growth trajectory 'unmatched,' with air travel demand fueling this aviation boom. As middle-class travelers multiply and tourism rebounds post-pandemic, airlines are racing to expand fleets. 🏙️ This trend could reshape everything from jet manufacturing hubs to carbon-neutral flight tech investments.
France-based Safran Group, a key Airbus supplier, sees massive potential here. The company is already collaborating on next-gen engines for China’s homegrown C919 aircraft. 🚀 Paul emphasized that 'innovation partnerships' will drive sustainable aviation – a win for both business and the planet.
