For Delta, No Glee in Q3. But Happy Times Ahead?
Skift Take
It wasn’t Delta’s greatest summer. Enough went wrong (the CrowdStrike disruption, lost business during the Olympics) to spoil all that went right (strong demand, cheaper fuel). Fortunately, almost everything’s coming up roses this fall, including heavy capacity cuts by domestic rivals. Will United finally beat Delta in the margin fight? We’ll find out later this week, when Scott Kirby and company report for Q3.
