American Airlines’ profit beats on strong demand for air travel
The No. 1 US airline’s pre tax margin, excluding special items, is forecast between 4.5 percent and 6.5 percent for the period.
Bengaluru - Muslimchronicle
American Airlines reported a better-than-expected quarterly profit on Thursday, benefiting from higher demand for business and leisure travel.
For the current fourth quarter, American said it expects revenue per available seat mile, a closely watched performance metric which compares sales to flight capacity, to rise between 2.5 percent and 4.5 percent.
The No. 1 US airline’s pre tax margin, excluding special items, is forecast between 4.5 percent and 6.5 percent for the period.
Earlier in October, smaller rival Delta Air Lines also reported a better-than-expected third-quarter profit, as disruptions caused by hurricanes cost the airline less than some investors had feared.
American said hurricanes caused nearly 8,000 canceled flights and cost about $75 million in pre-tax earnings.
American Airlines said net income fell to $624 million or $1.28 per share in the quarter ended September 30, from $737 million or $1.40 per share, a year earlier.
On an adjusted basis, American earned $1.42 per share.
Operating revenue rose to $10.88 billion from $10.59 billion.

Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home.
