DLD 402: Three planes you’ll probably never fly. Or maybe four.

The image shows the view from an airplane window. The airplane's wing is visible, extending outwards with a clear sky in the background. The sky has a gradient of colors, transitioning from light blue at the top to a soft pinkish hue near the horizon, indicating either sunrise or sunset. Below the wing, there are some clouds. The window frame of the airplane is also visible, framing the view.

DLD 396: So much revenue, but what about profit?

The image shows a view from an airplane window during takeoff or landing. The wing of the airplane is visible in the foreground, with the "jetblue.com" logo on the engine. Below, there is a runway and taxiway with another blue airplane on the ground. In the background, there is a body of water and a coastline with buildings and greenery.

Airlines raked in revenue in Q2, but not all of them reported a profit. And that raises a lot of bigger picture questions.

Alt text: A view of an airport runway with several American Eagle airplanes parked near the terminal gates. One airplane is positioned on the runway, ready for takeoff. The sky is clear with scattered clouds, and there are airport personnel and ground service vehicles visible near the planes.

So much noise for a handful of new routes. Is it really worth the hype? Plus an airline blocks customers and a hotel sues its parent brand.

Kicking off the show with a bad conspiracy theory about hurricanes probably isn’t our strongest play, but here we are. It gets better pretty quickly.
