The global Seaplanes market size was valued at USD 2047.05 Million in 2022 and will reach USD 3065.18 Million in 2028, with a CAGR of 6.96% during 2022-2028.
A seaplane is an aircraft that can take off, land, and park on the water. When the seaplane is moored on the water, the buoyancy generated by the large hull will cause the aircraft to float on the water and will not sink. But when it is necessary to take off, the pulling force generated by the propeller engine will drag it to run on the water at a fairly fast speed. With the increasing speed, the lift generated on the wing gradually overcomes the gravity of the aircraft, thus gradually lifting the aircraft from the water surface and becoming a ship flying in the air.
The coronavirus has caused widespread economic losses and caused a downturn in most of the world's manufacturing industries. Preventing epidemics forces people to stay at home passively. Through the practice of social evacuation, the activities of consumers and enterprises are reduced to a minimum. After the outbreak of the coronavirus in 2020, aviation and tourism are among the most affected industries.
The seaplane market will be negatively affected. Due to the widespread spread of the coronavirus, aviation and travel restrictions have made the business of seaplanes unable to operate normally, and the commercial demand for seaplanes has declined. The seaplane company also temporarily stopped all flights to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
Strength
Seaplanes can generate a wide range of profit points. Because of their generous take-off and landing rules, they can carry out various commercial activities freely and flexibly. For example, aerial photography, agricultural and forestry operations, official flights, sea travel, aerial sightseeing, flight training, etc.
Countries with large ocean areas and numerous lakes will have the basis for seaplane operations. Among the rapidly developing new tourism products in various countries around the world, seaplanes are popular with tourism consumers as a more high-end water tourism project with exciting and unique experience methods.
The use of seaplanes is also relatively diversified, both military and civilian use. With the development of seaplane technology, the increase of sea flying clubs, the maturity and standardization of seaplane transportation operations, the seaplane industry will be further developed.
Weakness
Development of alternatives to seaplanes. Compared with the turbulence of a seaplane, people prefer the stability of an ordinary plane. Seaplanes lag behind land-based aircrafts of the same level in terms of flight speed, range, economy, and comfort.
As a seaplane, it needs the support of the local government, maritime affairs bureau, ocean bureau, tourism bureau, customs and other relevant departments, and it needs to follow national regulations and technical requirements.

Segmentation Overview:
As for product types, the Amphibian segment held the largest market share in 2021.
Floatplane
Floatplanes are generally used by small aircrafts. One or two floats are installed under the fuselage to separate the fuselage from the water surface. Some aircraft are also equipped with small auxiliary pontoons on both sides of the wings to avoid the danger of overturning the aircraft due to tilting to the sides.
Flying Boat
Flying Boat is a fixed-wing seaplane with a hull that can land on the water. Unlike the floatplane, the body is usually larger, and the fuselage is inherently buoyant.
Amphibian
Amphibian refers to a seaplane that can be equipped with or equipped with wheels and can directly operate and take off and land on land. This type of aircraft can operate on the surface of the water or on land airports as needed.
Application Overview:
The market's largest segment by application is the segment Civil, with a market share of 61.85% in 2021.
