In the airline industry, 2024 saw record-breaking passenger capacity despite fewer scheduled flights, with U.S. airlines dominating the global market and Atlanta’s Hartsfield-Jackson ranking as the busiest airport. Meanwhile, luxury cruise company Ponant Explorations Group acquired Aqua Expeditions, expanding its presence in the high-end, small-ship cruising sector, with plans for new itineraries in East Africa.
