In an increasingly globalized world, air travel is undoubtedly the most important mode of transportation in terms of time saving, travel diversity and convenience. Although aviation is one of the areas deeply affected by the pandemic, thanks to the strong dynamics of the sector, many airlines have achieved or even surpassed pre-pandemic statistics.
The leading players of this gigantic sector: the world’s 10 most valuable airlines by stock market value have been announced. Here are the details…
The most valuable airline companies by stock market capitalization!
The world’s 10 most valuable airline companies in terms of stock market value have been announced. Our flag carrier Turkish Airlines was also included in the list. Air travel, which is an indispensable mode of transportation in our globalizing world, is becoming more and more widespread. One of the results of this situation is that the aviation sector is making great strides in our country and in the world every day.
In order to respond to the increasing demand for travel, airline companies are placing orders with aircraft manufacturers, some of which are in the hundreds. Accordingly, the number of flight personnel and ground handling staff employed is also increasing.
Due to the pilot shortage that has emerged especially in the recent period, many airline companies have resorted to training their own pilots and are trying to close this gap by training and employing people who meet the necessary criteria and meet certain conditions.
We have listed the top 10 players of this gigantic industry according to their international stock market values.
