Charter Market Report January - June (H1 2025) Overview

The 2025 charter market opened on a strong footing, with solid performance during the winter season and high demand carrying through the first quarter. However, as macroeconomic uncertainty intensified, momentum softened over the course of H1. While overall demand moderated in the second quarter, the market remains on track to deliver a healthy summer season, with charter activity showing signs of strengthening as the peak months approach.

This report aims to present a comprehensive overview of the charter market in 2025, with a particular emphasis on global booking patterns and reservation trends for the summer and winter seasons. IYC continues to closely track market dynamics and evolving client preferences, both of which are significantly influencing industry trends.
