A key driver of the upward trend in 2023 was the increase in international and national passenger traffic, with the passenger aviation sector estimated to represent more than 80% of global jet fuel consumption.
Progress towards recovery continues into 2024, underscoring the industry’s resilience and adaptability. According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA), Revenue Passenger-Kilometres (RPKs) saw a 16.6% growth in January 2024 compared to the previous year, with traffic levels reaching 99.6% of 2019 levels.

Despite facing challenges such as labour shortages, supply chain limitations, inflationary pressures, and geopolitical uncertainties, airlines have achieved traffic levels equivalent to 89% of pre-pandemic levels. (Source: IATA – Chart of the Week, 9 February 2024)
BloombergNEF (BNEF) anticipates jet fuel demand will reach pre-pandemic levels by 2025, driven by sustained air travel demand and limited decarbonisation alternatives. Despite efforts for greener solutions, jet fuel remains a significant contributor to annual oil demand growth, notably evidenced in 2023 when China resumed flights after lifting Covid-related travel bans.
Air traffic within Asia saw a remarkable 127% surge in 2023 compared to 2022 levels, and China’s jet fuel demand surge has been one of the main drivers of oil demand growth globally. (Source: Air Passenger Market Analysis [iata.org] [iata.org])
