United Seen as Better Insulated from Shocks than Other Airlines

Dow Jones07-17 01:42

1341 ET - United Airlines is better positioned than most airlines to withstand shocks, according to Melius Research in a note. While the recent increase in fuel costs will weigh on United's ability to beat Wall Street's expectations, the airline is in a particularly solid spot compared with the rest of the industry, analysts Conor Cunningham and Patrick Coleman say. They think United can still reach margins in the double-digit percentage range in 2027, given the company's strong revenue and the analysts' belief that airlines will "hold the line" on pricing. "United continues to prove that significant investment in its product, network, customers, and culture is a winning strategy," they say. (katherine.hamilton@wsj.com)
