Igniting Connections Propelling Growth

 PODCAST: Identifying Trends for 2024 and Beyond

We spoke to Raphael Haddad, President, Jetcraft Commercial who spent 18 years working with Bombardier in Africa, Europe and the Middle East.

Raphael set up Jetcraft Commercial in 2015 where he focuses on the global procurement and placement of commercial aircraft, so together we explore the current market trends and opportunities affecting Africa.

Together, we discuss if there is a trend towards rightsizing in Africa; Is the demand for widebodies waning?; with interest rates high and finance hard to secure, are there more airlines looking for short term dry/damp/wet leasing arrangements and what are the costs of leasing right now.  Finally we talk about if consolidation will be coming to the market?
