Along with this, the market is anticipated to grow at a CAGR of around 9.12% during the forecast period, i.e., 2025-30. The growth of the market would be propelled by the sudden surge in air passengers, both domestic & international, predominantly due to a rise in disposable incomes across developing countries, coupled with changing lifestyles, and increased urbanization.

In-flight Catering Services Market Challenge:
Balancing Flavorful Meals with Altitude Constraints and Mass Production: The major challenge for inflight catering service providers is creating dishes that maintain their flavors and appeal to passengers' taste buds at high altitudes. It is because reduced humidity and lower air pressure dull their sense of smell & taste sensitivity, making it challenging to discern flavors. As a result, inflight caterers must design slightly saltier, spicier, and sweeter dishes than restaurant meals. However, replicating taste and quality on a large scale while ensuring consistency poses a major obstacle for the in-flight catering service industry.
