Bluer Skies Ahead for U.S. Airlines - Barrons.com
Just remember, there's no money in Hawaii. We should pass all the rest of our Hawaii flying to Alaska Airlines. Let them try to pick some meat off that bone. Haha they are suckers!
Oooops this just in....
Alaska Air: It has been the top-performing domestic airline stock this year, falling just 4%, to 55, mostly because 2011 profit estimates have increased, and now stand at $7.64 a share. Alaska Air had its fifth straight record quarterly profit in the June period, and it's paying down debt and buying back small amounts of stock. Analysts credit veteran management, good labor relations, an underappreciated West Coast network and popularity with leisure travelers. Much of its growth is coming from West Coast-to-Hawaii routes, with the company avoiding competitive San Francisco and Los Angeles airports and flying such routes as San Diego to Honolulu. Linenberg's target: 80.
