| IATA says US air travel to lag global growth in 2026 and beyond | | Travel demand in the US is unlikely to catch up to international growth in the near future, the head of the leading global aviation association said at the Singapore Airshow. “Expected growth in the US market is lower than the global average,” International Air Transport Association (IATA) director general Willie Walsh said on Tuesday. Demand will grow by 4.9 per cent around the world while remaining “broadly flat” in the US, and the organization expects that trend to last beyond 2026, he said. Consolidation, focus on domestic travel even as it stagnates, a shortage in aircraft and problems in the supply chain affecting major US airlines contributed to stagnation in the American market, Walsh said.
