UBS lifts price targets on US airlines on bullish outlook hope

ReutersJan 6, 2026 4:33 PM

UBS says it believes US airlines are likely to provide bullish Q1 and FY26 outlooks given the demand bounced back following government shutdown

Shares of United Airlines UAL.O up 3%, Southwest Airlines LUV.N up 1.5% and American Airlines AAL.O up about 1.8% in early trading

Brokerage says Q4 expectations are well-calibrated, given some airlines pre-released in December, which has provided a good framework on the impact of the government shutdown

"We highlight UAL as our top pick heading into reporting on potential for upside on Q1 outlook," brokerage says
