Latin America Inflight Services Market Introduction and Overview
According to SPER Market Research, the Latin America Inflight Services Market is estimated to reach USD 2.62 billion by 2033 with a CAGR 10.19%.
The report includes an in-depth analysis of the Latin America Inflight Services Market, including market size and trends, product mix, distribution channels, and supplier analysis. The facilities and help offered to passengers during a flight are referred to as in-flight services. Depending on the airline and service class, these services can differ significantly. Meal and beverage options, which can range from snacks to full-course meals and are frequently tailored to dietary preferences or restrictions, are common in-flight amenities. These meals could be more complex and come with a selection of wines and spirits in premium grades like business or first class.
- LSG Sky Chefs was given the exclusive domestic catering contract for Brazil by LATAM Airlines in February 2021. This implies that the catering company not only managed to extend its current contract with the carrier for an additional three years in São Paulo (GRU) and Fortaleza (FOR), but also grew the partnership by acquiring LATAM's additional operations in São Paulo (CGH) and both of its Rio de Janeiro stations (GIG and SDU).
- The contract between Gategroup and LATAM Airlines, which spans several airports, was signed in July 2021. Gategroup is a top worldwide provider of food services and catering for airlines.
Market Opportunities and Challenges
Opportunities: This market is primarily being driven by the rapidly expanding aviation industry as a result of rising domestic and international travel and tourism. The market is primarily constrained by the downturn in the Latin American economy, which is a result of the global collapse in commodity prices. The region's ongoing airport development and expansion plans should present chances for in-flight catering service providers to increase their footprint, which should fuel the market's growth in the next years.
In the upcoming years, it is anticipated that the primary drivers of market expansion will be a rise in passenger traffic and a rise in aircraft deliveries.
Challenges: A major challenge in the region is the complex economic terrain, wherein nations exhibit substantial disparities with respect to GDP per capita and economic stability. The inequity impacts the airlines' capacity to allocate resources and uphold superior in-flight amenities uniformly along their flight paths. Due to its enormous geographic dispersion, Latin America presents logistical difficulties for supply chain management and catering, which may result in variations in the quality of services provided.
Market Competitive Landscape
Catering companies in the area are bringing ideas to the table to improve passengers' in-flight meal experiences, such as a restaurant in the sky, onboard chefs, and partnerships with celebrity chefs. Competition is anticipated to increase as a result of this, as well as potential for reputable restaurants to enter the in-flight catering sector. Some of the major market key players are GCG Catering, Gate Gourmet, LSG Sky Chefs, Air Culinaire Worldwide LLC, and Newrest Group.
