Avinode, the online charter marketplace, released its 2014 Business Aviation Market Forecast here at NBAA 2013, followed by a panel discussion by charter operators from the U.S., Europe, Asia and Latin America.

Avinode Business Intelligence forecasts a positive year for business aviation in the U.S. in 2014, with an expected 0.7 percent increase in business jet flights, while Europe is projected to see a 0.9 percent decline in activity, according to Per Marthinsson, Avinode co-founder and managing director for the Americas.
