Air cargo traffic to double by 2045, requiring nearly 3,000 new freighters amid e-commerce and AI demand

Boeing's 2026 World Air Cargo Forecast predicts global air cargo traffic will double over the next 20 years, driven by growth in e-commerce, AI hardware shipments, and supply chain diversification. This surge will increase the global freighter fleet from 2,395 planes in 2025 to over 4,000 by 2045, with nearly 3,000 new and converted freighters needed to meet demand and replace older aircraft. Asia-led trade flows will dominate growth, and dedicated freighters will carry more than half of all air cargo traffic, highlighting their critical role in global commerce. The forecast underscores air cargo's resilience and strategic importance in adapting to shifting trade patterns and geopolitical challenges.

Boeing's stock shows steady interest on Pluang, with a price of USD 168.25 and a slight 0.04% increase in the last day. The stock's market cap stands at $133.27 billion, reflecting its significant role in the industrial sector. These figures are current as of Oct 28, 2026, 19:11 WIB.
