尽管伊朗战事推高航空燃油成本，多家航空公司表示稳健的航班需求正助其抵御经营压力。
周二，达美航空与美国航空双双上调营收预期，主要得益于今年前三个月强劲的订票数据。这一乐观展望甚至克服了中东冲突爆发及连串恶劣冬季天气造成的运营中断。达美航空首席执行官Ed Bastian指出，国际与国内市场的商务及休闲旅行需求均保持健康态势。"在我们关注的每个市场都看到了增长动能，"他在摩根大通工业会议上如此表示。
低成本运营商JetBlue航空和Frontier航空也同步调升本季度单位收入预期。Frontier航空首席执行官Jimmy Dempsey透露，即便航空公司为抵消燃油成本上涨而调高票价，旅客购票意愿依然坚挺。
不过航司同时警告，油价飙升带来的航空燃油成本上涨正在侵蚀利润空间。Frontier微幅下调第一季度盈利预期，美国航空则坦言预计仅能达成盈利指引区间的下限。
这些最新动态推动航空板块摆脱伊朗战争爆发两周来的低迷态势。达美航空股价午盘涨幅超4%，其他主要航司股价亦同步走高。
