Engine MRO Market Grapples with Capacity Crunch Amidst Surging Demand
The global engine MRO sector is facing a severe capacity crunch due to a surge in post-pandemic air travel and aging fleets. Supply chain disruptions and skilled labor shortages are causing significant delays, with engine maintenance turnaround times often doubling. This "perfect storm" particularly impacts newer engines that require more frequent shop visits. In response, MRO providers are investing in new facilities and technology to manage the overwhelming demand. However, these industry-wide pressures are expected to persist for the foreseeable future.
