New figures from the UK Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) indicate that passenger demand for air travel is expected to continue rising into 2026, with younger travellers and improved satisfaction levels contributing to the projected growth.
According to the CAA’s latest consumer survey, 62% of respondents said they had taken at least one flight in the past 12 months. Around 31% reported that they expect to fly more in 2026 than they did last year, while 55% said their flying habits are likely to remain unchanged.
