Found a cool article showing the revenue for all airlines from Q2 2024 - Q1 2025. The graphics make it really easy to compare, props to the website below. Curious about any specific routings or comments from anyone here. LINK







What's a notable route that you would've expected to see on here but don't? What are some outliers that you notice?

One thing, southwest is not making as much revenue as the highest performing routes on other airlines

JFK-LAX is impressive with Jetblue, Delta, and American having that be their highest revenue flights

A decent amount of orlando routes on there, little surprised about that. I figured most fares to Disney area were reasonably priced/cheap, but even BWI-MCO is the highest for southwest

Delta’s Detroit flights are a little surprising.

Jesus Christ, half of United's Top 10 is out of that shithole EWR.

Just imagine if they had a halfway decent airport with less issues there.

Because they don't have premium seating and aren't targeting business travel as much whereas United, Delta, and American are all flying premium heavy configurations on their premier transcon routes that are being paid by business travelers.

I’d be interested to see this trend over the last 4-5yrs. They’ve definitely put their best customers last over the years, me being one.

Yes, my $25k or so spend in a year isn’t gonna break the bank, but I left them and went to United bc of not being a priority.

I think the flights to LAX and SFO are popular as a stopover to Asia. Just a guess...

Bit of both - I'm frequently on ORD -> LAX / SFO for work and, honestly, see a lot of the same people going to/from. Very, very heavy business travel and always packed to the brim. Most of us are going over Wednesday morning and coming back on one of the red eyes Thursday evening. It's a bitch, for sure, but I've done ORD -> SFO -> SIN a few times, so that would also match your thought.
