A jet bridge also termed as jetway, air gate, skybridge, airbridge, or passenger boarding bridge (PBB) is an enclosed, movable connector, which majorly extends from an airport terminal gate to an airplane, and in some instances from a port to a boat or ship, allowing passengers to go on board without going outside and being exposed to the elements. Depending on building design, sill heights, fueling positions, and operational requirements, a jet bridge may be fixed or movable, swinging radially, and/or extending in length. Smaller airports usually do not use jet bridges, instead they opt for flight stairs or wheelchair lifts. Terminal gate allows one aircraft to park at a time, thus short of terminals is the major disadvantage of jet bridges market. Jet bridges provide all-weather dry access to aircraft and enhance the security of terminal operations. They are often permanently attached at one end by a pivot (or rotunda) to the terminal building and have the ability to swing left or right. The cabin, at the end of the loading bridge, may be raised or lowered, extended or retracted, and may pivot, to adjust aircraft of different sizes.
The major factors that drive the growth of the jet bridge market are construction of new airports across the globe. In addition, increase in passenger traffic and high turnaround time of the aircraft are putting pressure on airport agencies to develop a better infrastructure including the advanced jet bridges. Initial cost for making jet bridge is high because of high price of materials restrain the market growth. However, there is an increase in the investments in airport infrastructure in the region, thus providing huge opportunities for the growth of the market in the coming years.
The global jet bridge market is segmented into type, technology, product, structure, application, and region. By type, the market is bifurcated into movable passenger boarding bridge and fixed passenger boarding bridge. By technology, it is divided into electro-mechanical and hydraulic. On basis of product type, it is classified intoapron Drive Bridge, dual boarding bridge system, Commuter Bridge, nose-loader Bridge, over-the-wing bridge, and T-bridge. By structure type, it is categorized into steel-walled and glass-walled. The classification based on application is done into airport and seaport. By region, the global jet bridge market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific and LAMEA (Latin America, Middle East, and Africa).
