CLEVELAND, Feb. 7, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- US air transport service revenues are forecast to increase 4.3% annually in nominal terms through 2022, according to Air Transport Services: United States, a report recently released by Freedonia Focus Reports. Demand for passenger air travel and air freight is projected to increase as:

Rising disposable personal incomes drive gains in tourism, vacation, and other consumer-related travel such as visiting family.
The increasing availability of relatively inexpensive flights allows more consumers to afford air travel, boosting volume.
Expanding domestic and global economic activity and a dynamic trade environment boost the need for business-related travel and air freight.
Rising oil prices – expected through 2022 – place upward pressure on air transport rates and contribute to gains in value terms.

The increasing availability of high-quality and more feature-rich telecollaboration and teleconferencing solutions will continue to restrict faster gains in business travel.

Revenues for domestic scheduled passenger services are projected to rise 4.6% per year to 2022, remaining the largest and fastest-growing discrete segment. Demand is expected to grow as recreational travelers and businesspeople continue to enjoy rising disposable personal and business incomes. In addition, ultra-low-cost carriers will entice consumers who might not otherwise afford to fly, boosting the volume of travelers and total revenue.
