Airline Profits Just Got Cut in Half — and United Still Wants to Buy American The global airline industry takes a brutal hit as profits are slashed nearly in half, global travel growth turns negative for the first time this year, and United's CEO is still publicly chasing a merger American keeps refusing. On today's Skift Daily Briefing, Sarah Dandashy breaks down why the Iran war has upended what was supposed to be a strong year for airlines and left the Middle East as the only region posting an outright loss, what it means that global travel momentum has quietly flipped negative for the first time in 2026, and why Scott Kirby keeps the American Airlines merger idea alive even as American keeps saying no.

On today's Skift Daily Briefing, Sarah Dandashy breaks down why Scott Kirby is done buying growth and betting that weaker airlines will simply hand United market share for free, why America's new passenger rights rule is a masterclass in doing the bare minimum while Europe has been paying travelers cash for delays since 2004, and why Expedia's IShowSpeed partnership signals that creator marketing has officially moved from experiment to core strategy across the travel industry.

//The Wire//2300Z April 6, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: RESCUE MISSION OF DOWNED AIRMAN CONDUCTED IN IRAN AS MAJOR ESCALATIONS OF THE WAR EXPECTED ON TUESDAY. UNITED AIRLINES BEGINS CANCELING FLIGHTS DUE TO EXTREMELY HIGH COSTS OF AVIATION FUEL.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE-----  -International Events-Iran: A large scale rescue operation was conducted over the weekend with the goal of rescuing the Weapon Systems Officer (WSO) who ejected from the F-15 which was shot down over Isfahan on Friday. The pilot was rescued quickly that same day, however the WSO was unable to be recovered. A large-scale ad hoc bombing campaign was conducted throughout Saturday morning and afternoon, as airstrikes were used to protect the downed airman until dark. Due to how far the rescue operation had to be conducted behind the lines, two MC-130 aircraft were used to set up a makeshift Forward Arming and Refueling Point (FARP) at a small agricultural airfield. During the operation the two MC-130's were unable to take off (some reports from local Iranians indicate it may have been due to mud or sand), and another rescue team was deployed to the same FARP to rescue the rescuers. By sunrise on Sunday morning, everyone (including the downed airman) was off the ground and back within friendly airspace. After their departure, the MC-130's were destroyed via airstrike to prevent them from falling into Iranian hands intact.Throughout the region, American bombing of targets within Iran intensified in the southwest over the weekend, as more assets were dedicated to supporting rescue operations. A handful of power plants and/or electrical substations were struck throughout Iran over the past few days as well. Iranian forces have continued to carry out attacks on American installations in Kuwait and the UAE, all of which have had some level of success.France: Counterterrorism patrols have increased following multiple arrests in Paris, which resulted from an attempted IED attack last week. Over the weekend French officials stated that at total of 4x individuals had been arrested after attempting to conduct an explosive attack at the Bank of America building in Paris back on March 28th. Initially, three of the suspects (all juveniles) were arrested either at the scene or shortly after the incident. An additional suspect (an adult) was arrested over the weekend, who has admitted to recruiting the juveniles to carry out the attack, with himself also being a middleman and someone else providing the IED to him.Analyst Comment: This attack failed due to the IED malfunctioning, and as a result the story did not get much traction in the media. The details provided by the fourth suspect reignited interest in the case, along with the strong indicator that the motive in this attack was terrorism (which came about after pro-Iranian terror groups claimed the attack). Considering the testimony from the adult who was arrested, it is very likely that this case is a continuation of the classic trend of a terrorist network being much larger than originally theorized.-HomeFront-Washington D.C. - Following a series of strange and concerning posts on social media, President Trump stated that the targeting of civilian energy infrastructure in Iran will begin on Tuesday if the Strait of Hormuz is not opened to the United States.USA: Around the nation, economic impacts of the war continue to be felt, as the average national gas price remains over $4.00 per gallon. Commercial airlines are also beginning to feel the impacts of the fuel crisis, with United Airlines canceling some lower-priority flights over the next few months due to the rising costs of jet fuel.Analyst Comment: For additional context, United's CEO Scott Kirby stated that if fuel prices remained as they are right now, United would need to raise prices by $11 billion. According to Kirby, this is more than double the total re

Brian explains the types of stories he enjoys reporting on, including the people behind the industry, who is up and who is down, loyalty programs, and revenue management. He's been covering airlines for some 15 years and tells us about the lack of airline policy and procedures clarity, and who understands their competition and who doesn't. We hear his thoughts about his recent interviews with Scott Kirby and Sir Tim Clark, some of the hot-button issues that airlines see ahead, and the future of LCCs in the U.S. Brian is a professional journalist with more than a decade of expertise covering airlines. He has written for Skift, Aviation Week, Conde Nast Traveler, the Los Angeles Times, and the Wall Street Journal.

Aviation News LOT Polish Airlines' Fraud Case Against Boeing Set to Go to Jury Trial LOT Polish Airlines' fraud and misrepresentation case against Boeing is proceeding to a jury trial scheduled for November 3, 2025, in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington. LOT alleges that Boeing rushed the 737 MAX to market, bypassed proper engineering protocols, withheld safety-critical details from regulators, and misled airline customers about the scope and safety of design changes from previous 737 models. The airline claims that these actions led to its belief that the 737 MAX was airworthy and economically advantageous. LOT claims at least $250 million in losses from the grounding, including lost revenue, storage costs, and expenses for replacing the unfit aircraft. After months of limits, FAA allows Boeing to increase MAX production The FAA has approved an increase in the production cap for Boeing's 737 MAX jets, allowing for the manufacture of 42 aircraft per month. This follows a review of Boeing's manufacturing processes and safety controls. The FAA will continue to supervise Boeing's operations and monitor the manufacturer's safety and quality culture. The rate increase helps Boeing's financial situation by accelerating cash flow, improving debt serviceability, and restoring investor confidence. Workers reject Boeing's latest offer after nearly three months on strike The roughly 3,200 members of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers (IAM) District 837 at Boeing Defense in the St. Louis area rejected the company's latest contract proposal.

What if the real secret to exceptional leadership isn't control, charisma, or even performance—but generosity? Could the “soft stuff” like listening, empathy, and vulnerability truly drive the hardest results in business? In this episode of the Delighted Customers podcast, I dig into that very question with Joe Davis, legendary former Senior Partner at Boston Consulting Group, co-founder of BCG's Washington D.C. office, and author of “The Generous Leader: Seven Ways to Give of Yourself for Everyone's Gain”. Joe shares his own journey from traditional, results-driven leadership to a generous, people-centered model—and why unlocking your team's full human potential just might be the most powerful business move you can make. We explore how the traits of generosity drive not only team happiness and loyalty, but also real bottom-line outcomes, making this conversation essential listening for leaders and aspiring leaders at every level. Why should you tune in to this episode? Joe has four decades of hands-on experience innovating in both the private and public sectors, founding major business initiatives within BCG, and working closely with Fortune 500 C-suite leaders. He distills this wisdom into practical strategies—whether you're leading a team of three or a global enterprise of 100,000. His stories from the front lines of consulting, combined with actionable steps for building trust and humanity in the workplace, will change the way you think about leadership forever. Here are three compelling questions Joe answers on the show: Why should organizations and their C-suite invest in “generous leadership” when they're held accountable for hard business outcomes, not just a healthy culture? What are the seven key traits that separate good leaders from exceptional, generous leaders—and how do they play out in real-world scenarios? How can listening, vulnerability, and small acts of recognition dramatically improve your team's performance and engagement?

Guest: Blake Scholl, Founder & CEO of Boom Supersonic“Passion and drive trumps knowledge and experience,” says Boom Supersonic CEO Blake Scholl. Long before he was running Boom — which earlier this year successfully tested the world's first privately-developed supersonic jet — he was enabling “the world's most obnoxious spam cannon” at Groupon, or designing a barcode-scanning game for retail shoppers.But eventually, Blake found the courage to be more audacious and do something closer to his lifelong love of aviation. He began educating himself about things he had never thought to learn, and tapping his LinkedIn network to get intros to the smartest people in the industry. “If you imagine yourself on like the day of IPO, 99 percent of what you needed to know to get to that day, you didn't know on day one,” he says. “So, why not take 99 percent to 99.5 percent, and work on the thing you really want to exist, even if you don't know anything about it yet?”Chapters: (01:07) - Blake on Boom's beginnings (01:52) - Breaking the sound barrier (05:23) - Concorde's legacy (09:36) - Navigating regulations (12:08) - Boomless supersonic flight (16:48) - The test flight (20:11) - Day-of nervousness (24:26) - Carrying passengers (26:55) - Cost & wi-fi (30:19) - “No middle seats” (32:35) - Hard tech (36:48) - What if Apple made a plane?

Episode Notes Hotel executives gathered at The Lodging Conference recently to discuss emerging trends in the industry. Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill listed five key takeaways from the event as executives look forward to 2025.    O'Neill notes hotel leaders are cautiously optimistic about the economic outlook for next year. Executives generally believe that the Fed's recent interest rate cut will boost enthusiasm for U.S. hotel development in 2025. Luxury hotels will likely see a boom in guests as global wealth is projected to increase by about a third by 2027.  However, O'Neill writes attracting and retaining talented workers still remains a challenge in the hotel industry.   Next, Airbnb has officially launched an expanded co-host network designed to make it easier for hosts to manage their properties, reports Executive Editor Dennis Schaal.  Co-hosts would be able to manage lists, respond to reservation inquiries and message guests under the program. Airbnb has piloted an online service for several years where hosts can find and hire co-hosts. But Schaal notes it's the first time the service is available in the Airbnb app and on its website.  Airbnb Chief Business Officer Dave Stephenson said he believes the co-hosting feature will help increase Airbnb's listings from both new hosts and existing ones.  Finally, Airlines Reporter Meghna Maharishi provides four takeaways from United Airlines' better-than-expected third quarter earnings report. United received a substantial boost from business travel's rebound as the company's corporate revenues for the company were up 13% compared to last year. However, despite bringing back its Los Angeles-Shanghai route, United isn't expecting to substantially increase bookings for flights to China. Chief Commercial Officer Andrew Nocella acknowledged demand for China has changed coming out of the pandemic. CEO Scott Kirby said he was optimistic planemaker Boeing could overcome its many issues, which include laying off 10% of its staff. In addition, United said it expects travel to slow during the weeks surrounding Election Day.  For more travel stories and deep dives into the latest trends, head to skift.com.  Connect with Skift LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/skift/ X: https://twitter.com/skift Facebook: https://facebook.com/skiftnews Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/skiftnews/ WhatsApp: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaAL375LikgIXmNPYQ0L/ Subscribe to @SkiftNews and never miss an update from the travel industry.

The Democratic National Convention in Chicago next week will be euphoric as Kamala Harris accepts the party nomination. Like every convention, it's also going to be a lobbyist paradise, with giant corporations throwing lavish parties. United Airlines' Josh Earnest, former White House Press Secretary under President Obama, will host an after-party at the company's Chicago headquarters, featuring Elon Musk apologist Walter Isaacson, author of Musk's mythologizing biography.    United Airlines has reason to be at the DNC, and it's not to celebrate terrifying passengers with several malfunctions, including wheels falling off and mid-flight engine trouble. They are actively working against Democratic legislation in the Senate to break-up the credit card fee monopoly of Visa and Mastercard, legislation that would save consumers $15 billion. Major airlines like United want to stop it, because they make more profit from credit card mileage programs than from flying planes. United's C.E.O., Scott Kirby, recently gave himself a 90% raise, earning $18.6 million in 2023, just a few years after taxpayers bailed out his airline at the height of the pandemic. Will United Airlines succeed in influencing Democrats at their biggest party in years, at the expense of us all?   Reecie Colbert, political commentator and host of Urban View on Sirius XM, joins Gaslit Nation, along with Terrell Starr of the essential Black Diplomats Podcast and Substack, to discuss how to hold a Harris/Walz administration accountable to the hopeful and inclusive vision of America they're running on, as well as how to protect the first Black woman president from white rage and misogyny.

Richard made the smart choice to ditch us this week and hang out with his family at Disney World. That means we're stuck with Julian Kheel, founder of Points Path, stepping up to the microphone to fill in. We wanted to know what was in Julian's wallet and also figure out what the latest details are regarding Points Path. Julian has added a ton of new features since the last time he was on the show. We also get Julian's thoughts on American Airlines' flight attendants turning down a big raise and doubling down on a potential strike during the summer travel season. Lastly, we're taking a look at some comments from United Airlines CEO, Scott Kirby, that have definitely raised some eyebrows.

United CEO, Scott Kirby, is a bad actor. Not only is he totally woke, he also pressured United employees to get the vax. If they didn't, they were humiliated and had privileges like health insurance revoked… The British Health service now says male “breast milk” is as good for babies as women's.  Thanks for listening to the Daily Dennis Prager Podcast.

The challenge via email and fake diversity are actually tied together. There's a kind of diversity of point of view missing in the media, so I get emails like I got from Randal about election fraud. Media is a proponent of fake diversity. The CEO of Alaska Airlines, the airline which had a door fly off a plane mid-flight, is assuring customers that they take safety very seriously. Is it? Somehow I don't think that's their focus now. It seems that gay airplanes are a bigger priority. What does God's Word say? Galatians 5:19-21 19 The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; 20 idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions 21 and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.1 Corinthians 6:10 Nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God.Episode 1,358 Links:Majority of U.S. adults say they view affirmative action ban favorably: GallupTHE BRONX KNOWS WHAT TIME IT IS!!!Voter Fraud Convictions Challenge Narrative of Secure Elections; Criminal convictions of election fraud across America have called into question the narrative that cheating is rare and of little impact.This is a clip of Fani Willis from 2020 where she says she would fire any employee who sleeps with a co-worker, promises to not date “anybody that works under me,” and said it would be “unfortunate” if taxpayers had to fund sex misconduct lawsuitsUnited Airlines CEO is a cross-dressing freak…This is Scott Kirby, the CEO of @united.

Patrick Madrid discusses the controversy surrounding United Airlines' diversity initiatives and its potential impact on airline safety. He shares insights and commentary on the company's focus on diversity quotas, the implications for hiring pilots based on diversity rather than qualifications, and the risks associated with prioritizing diversity over safety. This thought-provoking episode also explores the potential consequences of prioritizing diversity over competence in crucial roles, and its overarching impact on public safety. United Airlines CEO (and drag queen) Scott Kirby is pushing drag and DEI on staff (00:59) Patrick shares some recent standup comedy from Rob Schneider about what's happening at United Airlines Michelle – Thank you, Patrick, for bringing this to our attention George – I've been a pilot of 43 years and they are having us retire in our 60s for no other reason than age, which doesn't make sense to me. (28:35) Vic - From my experience, affirmative action does work but you must have the proper training. Black people don't get training, so they need more help getting it. (37:40) Grizzy - My wife was a pilot for United Airlines. She had to qualify back then and she did the same thing as the men pilots. It was based on ability, not gender. Joseph - I am a retired airline pilot. Affirmative action is alive in the airline industry, unfortunately.
