Tweet Picks:
@Airline_Weekly Delta goes in for a “premium” “seamless” exclusive experience with up to $200 million investment in electric air taxi developer Joby Aviation.
@ByERussell American Airlines says revenues were up ~13% y/3y in Q3, a point ahead of guidance. Analysts expect U.S. airline revenue strength to continue: https://bit.ly/3CGSQKM $AAL.
@ByERussell BNDES is financing 6 Embraer E175s bound for SkyWest Airlines. This is notable, not because its export credit, but because BNDES has been side-lined for several years.
@ByERussell Universal Hydrogen, which already has an investment from @JetBlueVentures , is developing a hydrogen fuel cell powertrain that will debut on a converted Dash 8-300 later this year.
@David_Slotnick Loyalty programs can have a 30-35% margin, Hayes says. Some airlines make more of a profit from their loyalty programs than from actually flying, he testified yesterday (incidentally, this has applied to American).
