The business jet market can qualitatively be segmented into two major categories-branded charters (which also include air taxis) and fractional ownership. The air charter market has shown significant growth since its inception, which was about five decades back. There were about 3,650 worldwide charter and air taxi fleet in 2013. The primary demand for chartered flights is due to consistent demand from North America and Europe, which constitutes 70% of the total demand. In the recent past, the strongest fleet growth in the charter market has been observed from APAC, Latin America, and Africa.

North America (comprising the U.S. and Canada) accounted for the largest share-52%-of the global business jet market in 2013. The already established infrastructural capacity and the highest number of older aircraft in the world are expected to be the cause of increased demand for new aircraft, thereby driving the growth in the North American region.

Europe is still the second largest market for business jets. The demand for business jets in Europe still remains below the pre-recession average, as the after effects of the sovereign debt crisis continue to hamper the consumer and business confidence across the region.

Latin America, APAC, and Africa are expected to be the key growth regions in the business jet market. Latin America accounts for 11% of the global market. It has the oldest aircraft fleet in the world. Hence, expected replacements will account for a significant number of deliveries in this region. APAC constitutes about 12% of the global market, with China and India being the key players. Under developed infrastructure, high aircraft import taxes, and high user fees are the reasons for the small business jet fleet in these countries. Continued globalization and a burgeoning economy are expected to increase the penetration level of business jets in this region.

Africa currently accounts for 6% of the global business jet market. The bulk of business jet deliveries are shared between Nigeria and South Africa in this region.
