Deliveries from the top-five business jet OEMs are forecast to jump by 17 percent from an estimated 575 in 2023 to 670 deliveries in 2024, according to investment research firm Jefferies. This would surpass the 652 delivered in 2019, according to the analyst.

Leading this growth are new programs—including Gulfstream’s flagship G700, which is anticipated to soon enter service, and Dassault Aviation’s Falcon 6X—along with an easing of the supply-chain headwinds, Jefferies added.
