Dublin, Jan. 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The "Pilot Training and Management Market Report 2026" has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The global pilot training and management market has seen robust growth, with revenues expected to climb from $11.54 billion in 2025 to $12.31 billion in 2026 at a CAGR of 6.7%. This upward trajectory is driven by factors including the rise of commercial aviation training programs, adoption of full-flight simulators, and advancements in aviation management solutions. Looking ahead, the market is projected to reach $15.86 billion by 2030, growing at a 6.5% CAGR. Key growth drivers include advancements in AI and virtual reality for pilot simulation, the expansion of unmanned aircraft pilot training, and the integration of cloud-based training platforms.

Significant trends include the expansion of type rating and recurrent training programs and the rising demand for aviation safety compliance training. Moreover, there is an ongoing modernization and upgrade of training fleets, alongside the globalization of pilot certification standards. In 2023, Eurostat reported a 19.3% increase in EU air passenger numbers, underscoring the rising demand for air travel, a key factor fueling the market's expansion.

Major market players are increasingly leveraging innovative technologies, such as drone systems, to enhance training safety and efficacy. Notably, in February 2024, the Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati, in partnership with EduRade, launched India's largest Remote Pilot Training Organization. This facility, spanning 18 acres, provides comprehensive drone pilot training, offering a Remote Pilot Certificate for aspiring drone operators.

In a strategic acquisition, Acorn Capital Management acquired Pan Am Flight Academy in February 2025.
