Arab Air Carriers’ Organization Secretary General Abdul Wahab Teffaha said 2026 would be an extremely difficult year for the region’s air transport sector, as the effects of the regional crisis widened, despite a strong start following the sector’s performance in 2025. He forecast that global travel-demand growth would slow to 2.1% in 2026, while demand for Arab airlines would fall by 10.3. He also expected their operating results to shift from a substantial surplus in 2025 to a deficit estimated at around 2.7%. Teffaha stressed that previous crises had not prevented the sector from recovering and returning to growth, and pointed to the industry’s commitment to achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, as well as its work to develop travelers’ digital identity and make use of artificial intelligence.
