Europe Aircraft MRO Market Analysis

The Europe Aircraft MRO Market size is estimated at USD 19.49 billion in 2025, and is expected to reach USD 24.87 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 5% during the forecast period (2025-2030).

Major European airlines are gearing up to revive their grounded aircraft, requiring maintenance, repair, or overhaul activities to ensure airworthiness. This surge in aircraft revival efforts is set to fuel a notable demand for MRO services in the coming years. Notably, carriers such as Air France, Eastern Airways, and Loganair boast aircraft fleets averaging over 14 years of age. The region has an impressive order book, tallying over 400 aircraft, with a dominant 80% share held by the A321, and a significant portion of these orders, around three-quarters, are attributed to Hungary's Wizz Air. Eastern Europe is poised to welcome nearly 800 aircraft deliveries, predominantly comprising narrowbodies, over the next decade.

Additionally, the region's armed forces are grappling with an aging rotorcraft and fixed-wing aircraft fleet, further amplifying the demand for MRO services. Industry increasingly turns to cutting-edge technologies like augmented and virtual reality to streamline maintenance operations, enhance decision-making, and expedite maintenance tasks.

Europe Aircraft MRO Market Industry Overview

The European MRO market features a fragmented landscape characterized by the presence of numerous key players operating MRO facilities. Notable entities in this market include Rolls-Royce PLC, TAP Maintenance & Engineering (TAP Air Portugal), Lufthansa Technik AG, BAE Systems PLC, and Airbus SE.

Several airlines in the region have dedicated MRO verticals to support their fleets. MRO providers are adopting advanced technology for maintenance inspections, aiming to streamline and expedite maintenance tasks. This efficiency not only reduces execution time but also enables maintenance providers to cut down on aircraft turnaround times significantly. In October 2023, Airbus inaugurated its Wunstorf MRO site, specifically tailored for the German A400M fleet. This move signifies a significant enhancement in in-service support for the German Air Force's A400M tactical airlift fleet, as they've initiated construction on a new facility at the Wunstorf air base.
