联合大陆航空公布第三季度营收实现增长，票价上调成为主要推动力，有效对冲了中东战事引发的燃油成本上升。公司当季净利润达10.3亿美元，合每股3.14美元，高于去年同期的9.49亿美元、每股2.90美元。调整后每股收益为2.54美元，而FactSet调查的分析师此前预期为2.57美元。运营营收从去年同期的152.3亿美元跃升至178.8亿美元，华尔街预期为178.9亿美元。单位可用座位英里营收同比攀升16%，运力则增长1.3%。飞机燃油支出从上年同期的30亿美元增至48.4亿美元。周二早些时候，油价一度突破每桶111美元，随后小幅回落。中东冲突鲜有缓和迹象，全球石油供应持续受限，航空燃油价格随之水涨船高。公司表示，凭借提高票价，已成功抵消大部分燃油成本涨幅，且目前尚未因此流失旅客。
