Key Takeaways:

  • Aviation insurance premiums are projected to reach a 20-year high of over $8 billion in 2024, driven by record high air traffic, particularly in Asia-Pacific and North America.
  • This surge in premiums is attributed to rising aircraft repair costs (due to higher labor, parts, and inflation), complexities with next-generation aircraft, and a growing shortage of experienced mechanics which could further increase future claims and risks.
