COVID-19 Impact Analysis

  • The COVID-19 impact on the in-flight entertainment & connectivity market is unpredictable, and is expected to remain in force for a few years.
  • The COVID-19 outbreak forced governments across the globe to implement stringent lockdown and banimport–export of raw material items for most of 2020& few months in 2021. This led to sudden fall in the availability of important raw materials for manufacturing in-flight entertainment (IFE) screens and other components.
  • Moreover, nationwide lockdown forced IFE manufacturing facilities to partially or completely shut their operations.
  • Adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic have resulted in delays in activities and initiatives regarding development of advancedIFE components globally.
