This aerospace logistics service market research report delivers a complete perspective of everything you need, with an in-depth analysis of the current and future scenarios of the industry.
The aerospace logistics service market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $14.71 billion in 2024 to $15.68 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.6%. The growth during the historic period can be attributed to the increasing demand for air traffic, the expanding need for air travel, the rise of e-commerce, the growing demand for air freight services, and the emphasis on regulatory compliance and safety standards.
The aerospace logistics service market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $20.18 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.5%. The projected growth for the forecast period is driven by the expansion of global military operations, increased investments in aircraft MRO (maintenance, repair, and overhaul) software development, rising demand for air freight, the growing need for fast shipping solutions, and the increasing adoption of drones and autonomous vehicles. Key trends expected in this period include advancements in supply chain management, developments in logistics, automation and digitization, the integration of AI-powered inventory management, and technological innovations in the aviation industry.
The growing demand for fast shipping solutions is expected to drive the expansion of the aerospace logistics service market. Fast shipping solutions are services designed to ensure goods are delivered quickly and efficiently, with a focus on reducing delivery times while maintaining reliability and cost-effectiveness. As customers increasingly expect faster deliveries, businesses are under pressure to accelerate shipping to remain competitive and meet consumer expectations. Aerospace logistics addresses this demand by utilizing advanced supply chain management, specialized transportation networks, and real-time tracking technologies to ensure the rapid delivery of critical components. For example, in January 2025, ShippyPro, an Italy-based logistics technology company, reported that the volume of same-day delivery parcel services is projected to grow from 70 million in 2022 to between 260 million and 521 million by 2027. As a result, the rising demand for fast shipping solutions is driving the growth of the aerospace logistics service market.
Leading companies in the aerospace logistics service market are focusing on developing innovative products, such as digital air cargo handling solutions, to improve efficiency, tracking, and safe delivery using artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, and automation. Digital air cargo handling solutions refer to technology-driven systems designed to optimize the movement, tracking, and management of air freight. These solutions leverage technology to track, process, and safely transport goods. For instance, in February 2025, Qatar Airways Cargo, a Qatar-based airline company, introduced AEROSPACE, a fast and reliable logistics solution tailored to meet the aviation industry's growing needs. This solution focuses on quickly transporting critical parts, such as aircraft engines, avionics, airframe interiors, and landing gears. Qatar Airways Cargo also employs innovative equipment such as shock-absorbing transport dollies and floating loading techniques to ensure the safe and swift delivery of aerospace components.
