Year-over-year, the region held broadly flat at -1.00% against July 2025's 27,798 departures. The modest MoM gain complements Europe's seasonal plateau, reflecting ROW's diverse mix even as several Southern-Hemisphere markets sit in their quieter winter season.

The region's 9.30% global share was little changed as North America held steady and Europe edged up on summer strength. ROW's steadier profile reflects its diverse geographic composition spanning South America, Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Africa, where seasonal drivers vary independently of Northern Hemisphere cycles.

Seasonal Pattern Recognition The 13-month trend shows Rest of World seasonality differs from Northern Hemisphere patterns: Dec 2025's 34,538 departures marked the annual peak. July 2026's 27,520 sits just below July 2025's 27,798, essentially flat YoY. The region's narrower seasonal range (26.1K-34.5K) makes month-to-month variations less dramatic than for NA or EU.

Market Dynamics Brazil led ROW activity with 7,026 departures (25.55% of the region, 2.37% global), followed by Turkey (2,897) and Australia (2,087). Turkey advanced (+19.41% MoM) while Brazil (+0.13% MoM) and Australia (+0.97% MoM) held steady. Fast-growing markets including Vietnam (+93.26% MoM), Qatar (+88.89%) and the United Arab Emirates (+25.57%) provided additional strength.

The region's diverse geographic composition means July sees offsetting seasonal effects — Southern Hemisphere winter easing set against steady Middle Eastern activity and rising Gulf demand. This diversification explains ROW's steady +0.77% MoM print alongside Europe's seasonal peak.

August Outlook August 2025's 30,538 baseline sets a higher next comparison. YTD Jan-July 2026 stands at 199,719 flights, +4.90% above Jan-July 2025's 190,385, providing a solid cushion. The region's structural growth trajectory remains intact, with summer Northern Hemisphere demand historically supporting steady ROW activity through Q3.
