Bruce Cockburn: 50 years of music, spirituality and social justice | SaltWire - Planemakers are betting on steady demand for business jets as the world's largest corporate aircraft show kicks off on Tuesday, but analysts are turning cautious about the appetite for private flying due to growing macroeconomic risks and a fading pandemic-induced boom.
Although those concerns have faded and commercial air service on key routes has resumed, industry executives have said they don't see demand slowing."If the Israel-Hamas situation worsens, oil prices spike up and the economy slows down. That could be a factor affecting demand," TD Cowen analyst Cai von Rumohr said."It is a cyclical business after all."
"We're happy with the conversations we're having with our customers and are looking forward to a great show," a Textron Aviation spokesperson said in an emailed statement. Manufacturers are expected to continue reporting robust backlogs and book-to-bill ratios above 1.00, though likely not as strong as those seen 12 to 18 months ago, said Adam Cowburn, managing director at Alton Aviation Consultancy.
Meanwhile, industry watchers expect new jet orders to be announced at the NBAA event. Private jet company Flexjet is expected to place a large order and analysts expect Bombardier will be the likely winner.
