UAL Sees Return to Profit in Q3 Despite Covid Surge
United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby predicts that increasing vaccination rates will mitigate any negative affect on demand caused by Covid’s Delta variant.

United Airlines said Wednesday that it expects to turn a profit in the third quarter after posting better-than-expected financial and operational performance in the quarter ending June 30. It would mark the first time the airline avoided a financial loss since 2019, before the onset of the pandemic.
