Airlines' Big Week Prepares for Takeoff -- WSJ

Dow Jones04-27 23:24

By Bowdeya Tweh

Airlines are focused this week on what's happening in Washington, but investors will also get more evidence on the toll that surging jet fuel prices are taking on the industry.

This week, JetBlue, Republic, Frontier and Allegiant are all due to issue quarterly financial reports. The good news for investors would likely come from the ways they're tamping down fuel costs and efforts to boost revenue. Larger airlines are watching too, especially if it keeps competition at current levels for longer.

Meanwhile, Spirit and other budget airlines are separately negotiating with Trump administration officials for hundreds of millions of dollars in aid, the Wall Street Journal has reported.

While Spirit is looking for a path to avoid a potential liquidation, the budget airlines see a chance for the government to ease their cost burdens and get on a stronger competitive footing with bigger peers.
