Sky shift

The aviation sector is in motion, not just through the skies but across boardrooms, manufacturing floors and environmental pledges. Carriers are racing to expand, codeshare and capture more routes, while simultaneously battling the weight of scrutiny over what their growth costs the planet. 

Some, like Turkish Airlines and Etihad, are leaning into scale and reach. Others, like Wizz Air, are being forced to reckon with the limits of their lift. Amid it all, suppliers like Thompson Aero are showing that resilience doesn’t just sit in strategy. It’s built into the seat. 

The industry’s next altitude check won’t be measured in miles but in meaning.
