Re: Pulso de Mercado: Intradía
"BREAKING: American Airlines, United Airlines and Southwest Airlines are now cancelling certain flights, scaling back flight capacity and adjusting schedules due to the sharp surge in fuel costs, with American Airlines saying the latest jump in fuel prices alone is adding about $1 billion to its fourth-quarter costs, per Reuters."
Southwest has already cut its planned 2026 capacity growth roughly in half and could trim further, with its CFO saying that if fuel is "higher for longer," cutting capacity is the "natural response." United said yesterday it will cancel December flights and could cut into the first quarter and 2027, with its CFO saying "we are not flying to maximize market share."
US jet fuel is now at $4.70 a gallon, up 108% since the war began.
