Boeing’s India President Dinesh Keskar,
a noted civil aviation expert, formally released
his company’s forecast for India, pointing
out that the growth of passenger traffic within
and from India was more than the world average
after the recent global downturn., pointing out
that India “went through the deepest recession
in the history of aviation but now India's recovery
is one of the fastest.”
"We believe there will be a record 50 million
passengers this year” as against 44 million
passengers ferried by Indian carriers in 2009.
India has already enjoyed 22 per cent growth in
air traffic this year as compared to 2009.
Keskar also said that India accounted for more
than four percent of Boeing commercial airplanes'
worldwide forecast.
"The potential for future growth of air
travel, both domestically and internationally,
is among the greatest in the world."
