Delta Loses $534 Million in 1Q, Much Bigger Losses Looming
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Delta Air Lines, the biggest and most profitable U.S. airline, is reporting a $534 million loss for the first quarter, a setback that will appear trivial when the full force of the pandemic is revealed in the current quarter.
Delta warned Wednesday that revenue during the April-through-June quarter, typically a period of harried travel, will plummet by 90% compared with last year, when there were no government travel restrictions and flights were full.
CEO Ed Bastian said, ``These are truly unprecedented times for all of us.''
