Aircraft Maintenance, Repair, And Overhaul (MRO) Market Global Report 2026

The aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $73.58 billion in 2025 to $81.12 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.2%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to the expansion of aircraft fleets, increasing passenger air traffic, growing aircraft utilization rates, rising aircraft maintenance requirements, and expanding commercial aviation activities.

The aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $118 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.8%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to rising demand for predictive maintenance solutions, increasing modernization of aircraft fleets, growing need for aircraft lifecycle optimization, expanding use of outsourced MRO services, and increasing emphasis on aircraft safety and regulatory compliance. Major trends in the forecast period include growing adoption of predictive aircraft maintenance technologies, rising demand for digital aircraft maintenance documentation, increasing use of condition-based maintenance approaches, growing demand for specialized MRO services, and rising focus on improving aircraft lifecycle reliability and airworthiness.

The growth in aircraft fleet size is expected to propel the growth of the aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market going forward. Aircraft fleet size refers to the total number of aircraft owned, operated, or managed by an airline or the aviation industry at a given time, including both active and inactive aircraft. Aircraft fleet size is increasing primarily due to rising passenger demand, which requires airlines to expand capacity and add more aircraft to accommodate growing travel needs. The expanding global aircraft fleet drives the aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market by increasing demand for routine inspections, component repairs, engine overhauls, and maintenance services to ensure airworthiness, operational efficiency, and regulatory compliance. For instance, in August 2025, according to the International Air Transport Association, a Canada-based trade association, the global commercial fleet consisted of 35,550 aircraft as of June 2025, of which 30,300 were in active service and 5,250 were in storage. Therefore, the growth in aircraft fleet size is driving the growth of the aircraft maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) market.
