Delta loses $363 million but says travel demand still strong

Published Fri, 21 Feb 2025 18:14:00 GMT

Delta Air Lines reported a $363 million loss for the first quarter on Thursday, with higher spending on labor and fuel overshadowing a sharp rise in revenue.But the airline predicted it will make a bigger-than-expected profit in the current second quarter, which includes the start of the key summer travel season.Airlines are getting a tailwind from the combination of strong demand and limited flights, which has pushed fares higher. But investors were spooked this week when industry analysts warned that growth in airline bookings has slowed down compared with this time last year. Delta’s CEO said it is unfair to compare current ticket sales with those from a year ago, when travel was just starting to boom as pandemic-related restrictions were lifted.CEO Ed Bastian and other airline executives have been saying for months that travel demand shows no signs of weakening despite high inflation, layoffs in the tech industry, the failures of a couple banks, and uncertainty about the e...

(CNN) — Una corte federal de apelaciones congeló este miércoles por la noche partes de la orden de un juez de Texas que habría suspendido la aprobación de la Administración de Alimentos y Medicamentos de EE.UU. (FDA, por sus siglas en inglés) de una píldora para abortar.Pero el tribunal solo concedió parcialmente la solicitud del Departamento de Justicia y el fabricante de la droga de suspender el fallo del juez federal de distrito Matthew Kacsmaryk, y el panel efectivamente hizo que el medicamento fuera más difícil de obtener.El viernes pasado, Kacsmaryk emitió un fallo que habría detenido la aprobación del fármaco Mifepristona por parte de la FDA, aprobada hace 23 años. Según la nueva orden de la corte de apelaciones, la aprobación permanecerá vigente y el medicamento permanecerá en el mercado mientras se desarrolla una apelación acelerada.Sin embargo, la Corte de Apelaciones del 5º Circuito de EE.UU. está dejando en su lugar partes del fallo que detuvo los cambios que la FD...

Hovland in Bismarck, North Dakota, halted the regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers pending the outcome of a lawsuit filed by the 24 states, most of which are led by Republicans. The regulations were finalized in December 2022, repealing a rule implemented during President Donald Trump’s administration but thrown out by federal courts.Opponents of the regulations, which define which “waters of the United States” are protected by the Clean Water Act, have called the rules an example of federal overreach and argued they would unfairly burden farmers and ranchers.The preliminary injunction affects Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississip...
