IATA's Global Outlook forecasts 4.9% year-over-year passenger growth in 2026, led by Asia Pacific's 7.3% expansion, constrained by aircraft shortages and labour scarcity. Air cargo is projected to grow 2.6%, supported by e-commerce and artificial intelligence trade.
IATA's 2025 Annual Safety Report Executive Summary confirms strong long-term global aviation safety, with accident rates falling to 1.32 per million flight sectors—a 65% decline from 2005—despite carrying nearly five billion passengers.
IATA's February 2026 air cargo market report shows global cargo demand (CTK) accelerating 11.2% year-on-year, driven by pre-Lunar New Year flows and sustained regional expansion.

IATA's International Tax Governance report examines the institutional and policy framework governing taxation of international air transport and its recent destabilisation.
