A recent report from the global market research firm Technavio indicates that the global in-flight catering services market is expected to expand by USD 7.65 billion between 2025 and 2029. This growth is attributed to increased air passenger traffic and the implementation of AI-powered meal ordering devices. The report was published on February 10 on Technavio's website.

According to Technavio, one significant factor contributing to this growth is the adoption of AI-powered meal ordering devices, such as the MOD function utilized by Emirates cabin crew. This technology leverages in-flight Wi-Fi, allowing passengers to place meal orders through approved apps. It aims to improve order accuracy and efficiency while enhancing customer satisfaction and streamlining catering operations.

Despite the anticipated expansion, challenges remain for the in-flight catering market, particularly due to fluctuating airline ticket prices. Yahoo Finance reports that rising ticket costs can reduce air travel demand, with passengers potentially opting for alternative transportation methods like trains or budget airlines. This trend presents a challenge for catering service providers who rely on high passenger volumes.
