What are the primary drivers fueling the growth of the airport operations market in recent years?

The increasing passenger traffic is expected to propel the growth of the airport operations market going forward. Passenger traffic refers to the movement of individuals traveling by air, land, or sea, measured in terms of the number of passengers transported over a specific period.
