These Are the Airlines Americans Love (and Hate) the Most
- Consumer spending is the backbone of the U.S. economy, and every year, a meaningful portion of a typical household budget goes towards non-essential items and experiences — such as jewelry, dining out, and entertainment. But a February 2025 survey conducted by the management consulting firm McKinsey found that Americans are more willing to splurge on travel than nearly every other sector. 24/7 Wall St. Key Points: Customer facing industries are often highly competitive, and air travel is no exception — particularly in an era of widespread economic uncertainty. Recent survey data measuring customer satisfaction suggests that some airlines are better positioned to maintain a solid customer base in the coming months than others. Also: Discover the next Nvidia While these findings should have come as welcome news to the air travel industry, many of the biggest airlines in the U.S. are not especially optimistic. In times of economic uncertainty or hardship, non-essential consumer spending tends to contract. And according to the University of Michigan Index of Consumer Sentiment, consumer confidence has fallen for three consecutive months — from 71.1 points in January, to 64.7 points in February, to 57.9 points in March. Waning optimism is due in large part to economic uncertainty under President Donald Trump and widespread concerns over the impact his administration’s policies may have on inflation, the job market, and business conditions. (Here is a look at the Americans who are not happy with Trump’s handling of the economy.) Shifts in public perception of the economy have broad implications for multiple industries, including air travel. Citing economic uncertainty, several major American airlines, including American, Delta, and United, cut earnings estimates in early March. Air travel is a highly competitive industry in the best of times, but under current economic conditions, airlines may have to go above and beyond to continue to bring in business. According to the latest data from the American Customer Satisfaction Index, some airlines appear better positioned to navigate current economic conditions than others. Using data from the ACSI, 24/7 Wall St. identified the best and worst airlines in America. We ranked all nine major airline companies with available data on their average customer satisfaction score in 2023 and 2024. Supplementary data on on-time arrivals is from the U.S. Bureau of Transportation Statistics. The airline industry as a whole had an overall customer satisfaction index score of 76.5 in 2023 in 2024. Among the nine airlines on this list, average scores range from 65.5 to 81.5. The two lowest ranked airlines on this list are so-called budget airlines. Generally, these companies can offer lower ticket prices by cutting operating costs. However, this often results in fewer in-flight amenities and additional fees for services that would be complimentary on other airlines. Notably, however, there are other budget airlines on this list with customer satisfaction scores that are in line with, or higher than, the industry average. Notably, the highest ranking airlines on this list are not necessarily those with the best track record of on-time arrivals. While getting customers to their destinations on time is the core of any airline’s business, customer perception is also based on a wide variety of additional factors. Indeed, each airline’s customer satisfaction index score comprises multiple benchmarks, such as the check-in process, interactions with the staff and flight crew, the range of offered flight schedules, as well as several measures of in-flight comfort — including availability of overhead storage, seating, and complimentary entertainment and refreshments. (Here is a look at the airlines with the best perks for business travelers.) Why It Matters In the current climate of growing economic pessimism and uncertainty, Americans are expected to cut back on discretionary spending. In this context, airlines will likely be forced to compete for business with a shrinking customer pool — and the companies that regularly meet or exceed traveler expectations may be better positioned to meet revenue targets than those that do not. 9.

Flying is cheaper in 2024. But not for some destinations
- Americans traveling this summer have broadly seen prices fall for airline fares, a welcome trend after last year's sticker shock. But airfare remains more expensive in 2024 for some regions and destinations, largely for trips abroad, data shows. For example, on average, a round-trip flight to Tokyo, Japan — one of the top hot spots for American tourists — costs $1,372 this summer, up 2% from 2023, according to travel site Hopper. Hopper also found that flights to Canada, South America, the Middle East and Africa are up 6%, 2% and 1%, respectively, from summer 2023. Of course, there's significant variation among the cities and countries of such vast regions and continents. For example, while the cost of a round-trip fare to Asia is flat from a year ago, the price for certain destinations has soared, according to Hopper: High prices to certain Asian cities impact many American tourists since the continent is their second-most frequented international travel destination, Hopper said. More from Personal Finance:Some vacationers expect to carry summer travel debtA controversial hack to save on airfare carries 'super big risk'New Europe travel requirement delayed to 2025 Flights are also up for some major hubs in South America, according to Hopper: Average fares to Europe, the most popular trip abroad for Americans, are down 8% in the summer of 2024 versus a year ago when they were at record highs. But they're still elevated in some areas like Friedrichshafen and Memmingen in southern Germany, and in Bratislava, Slovakia. Fares there are up 265%, 109% and 99%, respectively. Travel prices have fallen broadly "Last year was kind of an extraordinarily expensive year," said Hayley Berg, lead economist at Hopper. International travel was especially costly as consumers unleashed pent-up demand to go abroad following Covid-19-related restrictions. At the same time, many nations reopened their borders to foreign visitors and airlines worked to re-establish their flight schedules. Jet fuel prices soared. Some of those dynamics haven't yet unwound for certain areas. Additionally, specific destinations have their own idiosyncratic supply-and-demand factors that have kept prices high. Overall, though, travelers have gotten broad price relief. Average airline fares for flights originating in the U.S. fell by 5.8% in the year from April 2023 to April 2024, according to the consumer price index. They've declined almost 1% in just the past month. "Mostly what we're seeing [now] is tremendous improvement across most routes," Berg said. "I do expect that to continue." However, Americans may feel flight prices are broadly increasing due to certain airline trends like higher fees for checked bags, said Sally French, a travel expert at NerdWallet. Major carriers, including Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, JetBlue Airways and United Airlines, raised their checked-bag fees this year, for example. While those fee hikes are generally $5 more per bag, that can add up, especially for round-trip fares for families, French said. "It can completely inflate the cost of your trip," she said. There are ways to save, though, such as flying with certain airlines, combining bags, or even trying to forgo checking a bag altogether. If you know you'll have to check a bag, doing so ahead of flight check-in will likely save you money, too. Booking a flight well ahead — at least one to three months before a domestic trip, and three to four months ahead of international travel — is another way to save on flight costs, French said. Airlines generally don't reduce airfare at the last minute, unlike many hotels, for example, she said. Other ways to save include being flexible with travel time — perhaps by visiting a destination during a shoulder season instead of its peak or by flying mid-week instead of around weekends. Don't forget to use rewards, such as frequent-flier miles, and certain perks, such as travel insurance offered by some credit cards. Don’t miss these exclusives from CNBC PRO

The Best Airlines for Traveling With Kids
- KEY POINTS Flying with kids can be an ordeal, so before booking airline tickets for an upcoming vacation, consider which airline is most kid-friendly.American Airlines, Alaska Airlines, and Southwest Airlines are a few airlines with policies that can benefit families traveling with kids -- some of which can provide savings. Check out our pick for the best cash back credit card of 2024 Check out our pick for the best cash back credit card of 2024 Traveling can be fun and exciting, especially when you get to do it with the people you love. But traveling as a family with kids takes extra effort and planning. You may be looking for insight on the best airlines to book when flying with your kids to make future trips less stressful and more enjoyable. I'll share some of the best airlines for traveling with kids.American AirlinesAmerican Airlines is one of several airlines that have committed to seating kids under 15 and an accompanying adult together without extra fees when available. (function(){if (!document.body) return;var js = "window['__CF$cv$params']={r:'886c93e23b736fdb',t:'MTcxNjIxMDczOS42MTMwMDA='};_cpo=document.createElement('script');_cpo.nonce='',_cpo.src='/cdn-cgi/challenge-platform/scripts/jsd/main.js',document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(_cpo);";var _0xh = document.createElement('iframe');_0xh.height = 1;_0xh.width = 1;_0xh.style.position = 'absolute';_0xh.style.top = 0;_0xh.style.left = 0;_0xh.style.border = 'none';_0xh.style.visibility = 'hidden';document.body.appendChild(_0xh);function handler() {var _0xi = _0xh.contentDocument || _0xh.contentWindow.document;if (_0xi) {var _0xj = _0xi.createElement('script');_0xj.innerHTML = js;_0xi.getElementsByTagName('head')[0].appendChild(_0xj);}}if (document.readyState !== 'loading') {handler();} else if (window.addEventListener) {document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', handler);} else {var prev = document.onreadystatechange || function () {};document.onreadystatechange = function (e) {prev(e);if (document.readyState !== 'loading') {document.onreadystatechange = prev;handler();}};}})();American Airlines has an online system that detects you're traveling as a family. If you can't choose seats, are flying on basic-economy tickets, or want to avoid paying for seats, the system will search for seats together before the day of departure.Featured offer: save money while you pay off debt with one of these top-rated balance transfer credit cards The airline will try its best to seat everyone together, but if seats are limited, children under 15 will be next to at least one adult traveling on the same reservation.If traveling with children under 2 years old, you can ask the gate agent to board early. Because of these policies, families may feel more confident booking their airline tickets with American Airlines.Alaska AirlinesAlaska Airlines also does its best to accommodate families with kids. The airline guarantees that children 13 and under will be seated with one accompanying adult at no extra cost. This service is available when booking tickets on the same reservation and is subject to a few other conditions.Even better, Alaska's system is built to detect when families are traveling together, so it will automatically attempt to assign seats together during the booking process.Southwest AirlinesUnlike other major U.S. airlines, Southwest doesn't provide assigned seats. Instead, fliers are assigned boarding groups (A, B, C) and positions (1–60) at check-in. The group and position on their boarding passes reflect their boarding order.After getting on the plane, passengers can choose whichever seat they want. Passengers with earlier groups and positions board first. Your boarding order is determined by when you check in for your flight. Checking in as soon as possible will improve your odds of getting an earlier boarding group.Some travelers dislike Southwest's no-assigned-seat policy. However, this policy can be beneficial for families traveling with children. How? Families who check in earlier for their flight may receive an earlier boarding group, so they have more flexibility when choosing their seats on the plane. This way, the whole crew can sit together.Plus, Southwest has a generous pre-boarding policy for eligible families. Up to two adults traveling with kids age 6 and under can board the plane after the A group but before the B group starts boarding. Since each group has 60 passengers, families with young kids can feel more confident that they can sit together.Finally, every ticket includes two free checked bags. If you're traveling with your crew, you can avoid the added expense of pricey bag fees by flying with Southwest. Most other airlines have recently increased their checked bag fees, so this perk can offer significant savings.Try to book a direct flightThis tip could improve your family's travel experience no matter which airline you use. Booking a direct flight can result in everyone spending less time at the airport in between transit. Less time wasted equals less stress and more smiles.Direct flights tend to cost more, so purchasing this ticket type will impact your checking account. However, the added convenience of not dealing with the frustration of lengthy layovers may be well worth the added expense.Earn rewards with a travel credit cardHow you pay for your travel expenses, including airfare, matters. Using one of the best travel rewards credit cards is an excellent way to boost your credit card rewards. You can earn rewards when you swipe your credit card and later redeem them for free or nearly free travel.If you're an airline loyalist, using an airline credit card from your go-to airline is another way to earn credit card rewards. Travel costs can add up fast when traveling as a family, so earning travel rewards can help you keep more money in the bank.

Indigenous communities in Alaska harder hit by coronavirus
- ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) — Alaska state health data indicate Pacific Islanders and Alaska Natives are more likely to contract the coronavirus and be hospitalized with the illness. Beyond underlying medical conditions, culture and economics contribute to the disparity, Alaska Public Media reported Tuesday. Data indicate Pacific Islanders in Alaska have contracted COVID-19 at about eight times the rate of the rest of the population and are more than four times as likely to be hospitalized with the virus. Alaska Natives are more than one-and-a-half times as likely to contract the coronavirus and have been hospitalized almost twice as much. Pacific Islanders, Alaska Natives and American Indians, who also have been more susceptible to the virus, are more likely to live in crowded, multi-generational housing where the virus can easily spread. Dr. Bob Onders, medical director of the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, said multi-generational housing can create a higher risk for these groups in urban and rural areas. Many homes in rural Alaska also lack adequate sanitation, another factor contributing to virus spread. Lucy Hansen, president of the Polynesian Association of Alaska, said physical closeness is customary for the Pacific Island community. “We’re a culture that we love to hugs and we love to kiss. It’s the way we show our love and affection,” Hansen said. Social gatherings have been a conduit for virus transmission and Hansen has asked community and church leaders to spread the message that meeting in person can be dangerous. Hansen also has translated health information resources into Samoan and Tongan for community members who do not speak English as a first language. “We just have to remind each other that it’s very real," Hansen said. “It’s...

Alaska Air sees August revenue down up to 75%, passengers increasing from July
- Shares of Alaska Air Group Inc. were indicated down close to 1% in premarket trading Friday, after the air carrier provided traffic and revenue expectations for the month of August. The company said it expects total revenue for the month to be down 70% to 75% from a year ago, after a 73% decline in July. The current FactSet consensus for third-quarter revenue of $776 million implies a 67.5% decline. The company said it expects August load factor of 40% to 45%, compared with July load factor of 54%. Capacity is expected to be down 50% from a year ago, compared with the July decline of 63%, while traffic is expected to be down 70% to 75% after being down 74% in July. The company expects revenue passengers of 1.2 million to 1.3 million for the month, up from 1.14 million in July. Cash burn in July was $175 million, which increased from June because of slowing ticket sales and the timing of certain payroll cycles, partially offset by lower debt service. Cash burn is expected to decline to "less than $125 million" in August, primarily because of ticket sales. "The public health and economic crises resulting from the outbreak of COVID-19 has had an unprecedented impact on our business. We are uncertain what shape the recovery will take, and we are continuously monitoring trends in demand to determine our capacity decisions as the situation unfolds," the company said in a statement. The stock has dropped 44.2% year to date through Thursday, while the Dow Jones Transportation Average has slipped 0.1% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average has lost 2.3%.

Looking Into Alaska Air Group's Return On Capital Employed
- Alaska Air Group (NYSE: ALK) reported Q2 sales of $421.00 million. Earnings fell to a loss of $288.00 million, resulting in a 10.28% decrease from last quarter. In Q1, Alaska Air Group brought in $1.64 billion in sales but lost $321.00 million in earnings.What Is ROCE? Return on Capital Employed is a measure of yearly pre-tax profit relative to capital employed in a business. Changes in earnings and sales indicate shifts in a company's ROCE. A higher ROCE is generally representative of successful growth in a company and is a sign of higher earnings per share for shareholders in the future. A low or negative ROCE suggests the opposite. In Q2, Alaska Air Group posted an ROCE of -0.07%.Keep in mind, while ROCE is a good measure of a company's recent performance, it is not a highly reliable predictor of a company's earnings or sales in the near future.View more earnings on ALKROCE is an important metric for the comparison of similar companies. A relatively high ROCE shows Alaska Air Group is potentially operating at a higher level of efficiency than other companies in its industry. If the company is generating high profits with its current level of capital, some of that money can be reinvested in more capital which will lead to higher returns and earnings per share growth.For Alaska Air Group, the return on capital employed ratio shows the current amount of assets may not actually be helping the company achieve higher returns, a note many investors will take into account when making long-term financial decisions.Q2 Earnings Recap Alaska Air Group reported Q2 earnings per share at $-3.54/share, which beat analyst predictions of $-3.72/share.See more from Benzinga * Earnings Scheduled For July 23, 2020(C) 2020 Benzinga.com.

1.2 million seek jobless aid after $600 federal check ends
- WASHINGTON (AP) - Nearly 1.2 million laid-off Americans applied for state unemployment benefits last week, evidence that the coronavirus keeps forcing companies to slash jobs just as a critical $600 weekly federal jobless payment has expired.
The government's report Thursday did offer a smidgen of hopeful news: The number of jobless claims declined by 249,000 from the previous week, after rising for two straight weeks, and it was the lowest total since mid-March.
Still, claims remain at alarmingly high levels: It is the 20th straight week that at least 1 million people have sought jobless aid. Before the pandemic hit hard in March, the number of Americans seeking unemployment checks had never surpassed 700,000 in a week, not even during the Great Recession of 2007-2009.
Rubeela Farooqi, chief U.S. economist at High Frequency Economics, called the drop in weekly claims "a move in the right direction.'' But in a research note, she added:
"Repeated shutdowns for virus containment remain a threat to the labor market, which is already weak. The possibility of mounting layoffs that could become permanent is high. Without effective virus containment, the recovery remains at risk from ongoing job losses that could further restrain incomes and spending.''
The pandemic, the lockdowns meant to contain it and the wariness of many Americans to venture back out to eat, shop or travel have delivered a devastating blow to the economy despite the government's emergency rescue efforts. The nation's gross domestic product, the broadest measure of economic output, shrank at an annual rate of nearly 33% from April through June. It was by far the worst quarterly fall on record, though the economy has rebounded somewhat since then.
On Friday, the government is expected to report a sizable job gain for July - 1.6 million. Yet...

Many more likely sought jobless aid amid resurgence of virus
- WASHINGTON (AP) - With the nation still gripped by an alarming resurgence of coronavirus cases, the U.S. government will provide its latest snapshot Thursday of the layoffs that have remained elevated at a weekly pace above 1 million since the pandemic erupted in March.
The rate of applications for unemployment benefits has stalled at roughly twice the record high that had existed before the virus sent the economy spiraling into a recession. With many states and localities having re-imposed lockdowns in response to the spreading virus, businesses face renewed struggles that have forced some to impose further job cuts or to shut down.
The latest string of layoffs follows the expiration of a $600 weekly federal jobless payment that provided critical support for many of the unemployed. Members of Congress are locked in prolonged negotiations over a new rescue aid package that might extend that unemployment benefit, though likely at a lower level of payment.

Alaska Airlines says 331 Anchorage employees face job cuts
- ANCHORAGE, Alaska (AP) - Alaska Airlines said 331 employees among the company's workforce in Anchorage may lose their jobs on Oct. 1.
The company said the Anchorage layoffs are part of company-wide job cuts because of the economic fallout from the coronavirus pandemic, Alaska Public Media reported Tuesday.
Alaska Airlines said 4,200 workers may be furloughed or laid off across the company beginning in October.
The 331 workers account for about 26% of the airline's workforce in Anchorage, company spokesman Tim Thompson said.
Thompson said the number of layoffs may be lowered by Oct. 1, a day after the federal government's multi-billion dollar payroll support program is set to expire.
The airline announced in an alert to state and local governments that the jobs being considered for elimination include 135 Anchorage flight attendants, 76 customer service agents and maintenance technicians and ramp service workers.
Pilots will not be furloughed because of a combination of voluntary leave and early retirement, the airline said.
Thompson said Tuesday he did not have information about how the layoffs may impact flights.
"Reducing our workforce is one of the hardest realities of this crisis," the company said in a statement.
For most people, the coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough that clear up in two to three weeks. For some - especially older adults and people with existing health problems - it can cause more severe illness, including pneumonia, and death.
The number of infections is thought to be far higher because many people have not been tested, and studies suggest people can be infected with the virus without feeling sick.

Alaska Air gets tougher on face mask policy--'No mask, no travel, no exceptions'
- Alaska Air Group Inc.'s Alaska Airlines announced more stringent requirements for cloth masks and face coverings in an effort to stop the spread of the COVID-19 virus, saying "no mask, no travel, no exceptions." The air carrier said everyone age 2 and older must wear a face covering, over their nose and mouth, at all times when at the airport or onboard Alaska Airlines aircraft, "with no exceptions." The company said it a customer is unwilling or unable to wear a mask "for any reason while at the airport," they will not be permitted to travel. If a passenger refuses to wear a mask after boarding, the company said they will be suspended from future travel. "We all need to look out for each other during this health emergency, and the best way we can do that -- and prevent the spread of the virus -- is to simply wear a mask or face covering when we're around each other," said Max Tidwell, vice president of safety and security. "Our tougher policy shows how important this issue is to us and our guests. If you don't wear a mask, you won't be flying with us." The stock was unchanged in premarket trading. It has tumbled 49.4% year to date, while the U.S. Global Jets ETF has shed 50.0% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average has declined 6.0%.

A Tale of 3 Airline Stocks; 2 to Buy and 1 to Hold
- The airline industry has certainly seen better days. The response to the global coronavirus pandemic has put hard restrictions on travel, especially international travel, while also putting unprecedented numbers of people out of work. It was a one-two body blow to the airlines; most people weren’t allowed to travel, and when that began to loosen, too few people had money to afford travel.The airline stocks have reacted in entirely predictable ways. They plummeted in March and February, during the general stock collapse, and have failed to regain traction since. There was an abortive rally in early June, when it appeared that travel restrictions would loosen – but that sputtered out when the virus began to spread again, prompting fears of a ‘second wave’ as well as governmental moves back toward lockdown policies.Through all of this, Savanthi Syth, 4-star analyst with Raymond James, has kept her finger on the airlines’ collective pulse. Syth has been following the industry for Raymond James for the past decade; she knows the players and the field. And in recent days, she has pointed out three airlines that deserve a second look from investors.Opening up the TipRanks stock database, we’ve pulled up Syth’s three new ratings. She rates two as Buys, and the third a Hold – but that third stock may be the real story, as her Hold represents an upgrade from Sell. Let’s take a look at Syth’s airline ratings, and find out why she is unexpectedly bullish on air travel.Southwest Airlines (LUV)We start with Southwest, the world’s largest bargain-price airline and a long-time blue-chip stalwart of the S&P 500 index. Southwest has based its market strategy on a combination of low cost and positive customer service, an approach reflected in its very stock ticker, LUV. The company’s effort has been successful, in the only way that counts. LUV finished 2019 with $2.3 billion in net income, it’s 47th profitable year in a row. That profitability simply evaporated in 1H20, when the travel restrictions took hold. Southwest reported a loss of 15 cents per share in Q1, which deepened to an ugly $2.67 in Q2. In the earnings report, management noted the brief partial recovery in May and June, and the reversal in July.On a positive note, Southwest reported good liquidity, with $14.5 billion in cash and cash equivalents on hand as of the end of Q2, along with $12 billion in unencumbered assets. Strong liquidity kept the company in good with the credit rating agencies, and Southwest has the only investment-grade credit rating among major US airlines. Management boasted that they have been able to shrink the average daily cash burn from April’s $30 million per day to $16 million per day in June.Syth notes all of this in her note last week on LUV. She writes, “Having entered this crisis the best in class in terms of balance sheet and profitability, we expect Southwest to exit in similar manner. Southwest's relative advantage is further supported by its predominantly U.S. exposure and somewhat low-cost structure given our view that domestic demand is likely to recover faster than international travel…”In line with her outlook, Syth rates the stock a Buy, and her $42 price target implies a robust one-year upside of 33%. (To watch Syth’s track record, click here.)Wall Street appears to agree with industry expert Syth on this one. LUV shares hold a Moderate Buy rating from the analyst consensus, based on 10 Buys against 4 Holds set in recent weeks. Shares are selling for $32.33, and the average price target, at $42.08, is nearly identical to Syth’s. (See Southwest’s stock-price forecast on TipRanks)Alaska Air Group (ALK)Next up is Alaska Air, another airline, like Southwest, with a solid reputation for quality, safety, and customer service. In fact, these two airlines consistently rate in the top 5 among US domestic airlines. Alaska Air brought in $8.8 billion in revenue for 2019, while holding its position as the dominant West Coast regional airline.A good reputation did not prevent Alaska Air from feeling the same hurt as the rest of the airline industry. Like Southwest, ALK saw earnings turn rapidly from net profit in Q4 to a net loss in Q1, and to a deepening negative in Q2. The Q1 and Q2 EPS loss numbers were 82 cents and $3.54, respectively. Quarterly revenue in Q2 was down sequentially, from $1.64 billion to a mere $421 million. At this point, even if air travel should see all restrictions lifted today, the Street still expects ALK to report a loss in Q3.After all of that, ALK has seriously underperformed compared to the broader markets. The stock is down 46% from February, and down 30% from the brief peak in June. Prior to the crisis, ALK had paid out a reliable dividend, with a hefty 5.8% yield, but that has been suspended until further notice. The company’s upper management has taken steep pay cuts, and Alaska Air has increased its debt by $825 million. While these measures may help shore up operations in the short term, they are not long-term solutions to the situation.Syth, however, is willing to give Alaska Air the benefit of the doubt. She writes of the company, “Alaska remains laser focused on controllable factors including strategically shoring up liquidity and embarking on structural cost reductions. Given its low-cost and capital-efficient DNA, flexibility from undecided fleet plans/commitments and upcoming lease expirations, as well as predominantly domestic focus, we believe the risk reward remains compelling on this historically well managed airline…”Her upbeat outlook comes with a Buy rating, and her $43 price target indicates an upside potential of 25% for the next 12 months. (To watch Syth’s track record, click here)The Moderate Buy analyst consensus rating on ALK is based on 11 reviews, breaking down to 7 Buys and 4 Holds. The stock’s $45.72 average price target suggests a premium of nearly 31% from the current selling price of $35. (See ALK stock-price forecast on TipRanks)American Airlines (AAL)Last on our list is the first-place holder for size among world airlines. American is number one when measured by several key metrics, including aircraft fleet size, scheduled passengers carried, and revenue per passenger mile. Or at least, it was before the crisis. The coronavirus pandemic has wiped out those positives for AAL.The Q1 and Q2 losses here were deep, and are trending worse. In Q1, the company saw EPS turn to a negative $2.65, much worse than the $2.16 forecast. The Q2 number was far worse sequentially, falling to $7.82 in net loss per share. This was 21% worse than expected before the earnings release. These were the first quarterly losses for the company in seven years.It was a bitter pill for a company that entered 2020 with a bullish outlook. American had finished 2019 with record revenue, reporting $45.8 billion for the full year. A full half of net losses, combined with a gloomy industry outlook for the rest of the year, has investors pulling back from AAL.There is a ray of hope, however, in the Q2 earnings report. American Airlines reported a 9.5% beat on revenue expectations, bringing in $1.62 billion for the quarter. Even that was tempered, however, as the year-ago number was $11.96 billion. And the revenues are dwarfed by corporate debt; American borrowed $1.2 billion in July, and planes to borrow an additional $4.75 billion under the CARES Act.Looking at the big picture for American, Syth writes, “[We] see a more balanced near-term risk-reward, albeit with the least appealing risk-reward dynamics vs. U.S. airlines under coverage due to the materially higher debt burden… Our view remains that bankruptcy is not in the cards for American in 2020 with Chapter 11 only a potential avenue if the earnings recovery stalls over multiple years… American's balance sheet likely leaves it crippled for years to come.”Believing that American may be able to forge a path out of the current morass, Syth upgraded her stance on the stock from Sell to Hold. While she’s not recommending that investors buy in now, she’s not telling existing shareholders to divest, either. Syth declined to name a price target for AAL shares. The analyst consensus on AAL is in line with Syth’s upgrade. The shares have 12 recent ratings, breaking down to 3 Buys, 3 Holds, and 3 Sells, making the analyst consensus here a Hold. American’s stock sells for $11.39, and the average price target of $13.63 suggests it has a 19% upside potential for the year ahead.

Airlines Pledge Aircraft, Loyalty Programs in Bid To Tap Funding
- (Bloomberg) -- Global airlines are pledging their brands, loyalty programs and aircraft as collateral to secure more funds in the debt markets as the coronavirus pandemic continues to batter the sector.Alaska Air Group Inc. said last week it plans to use its customer mileage plan as collateral to tap U.S. government-backed financing. Other carriers putting assets to work as they raise funding include American Airlines Group Inc., which is borrowing against its brand in a $1.2 billion deal with Goldman Sachs Group Inc., and Singapore Airlines Ltd, which has raised loans secured by some of its Airbuses and Boeings.The coronavirus pandemic forced carriers to be inventive as they bolster their coffers to weather a long recovery process for the travel industry. Airlines have already tapped $49 billion from loan issuance, as well as $47 billion from bond sales, in the course of 2020, a record year for the industry.Secured loans have jumped to $21 billion so far this year, almost triple 2019’s full-year figure. Secured bonds reached a record high of $13 billion, more than doubling from 2019’s full-year issuance, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.The deal for American Airlines includes $1 billion of issuance secured by a first lien on certain intellectual property, including its “American Airlines” trademark and “aa.com” website domain name. The other $200 million will be backed by collateral including slots at domestic airports. The airline had earlier issued bonds and loans earlier to help it ride out the pandemic.Read more: Goldman Helps United Reshape Aviation Finance in Air-Miles DealUnited Airlines sold $6.8 billion of debt in June backed by its frequent-flyer program, setting a precedent for more to come.
