Amid a backdrop of global economic uncertainty, Alaska Airlines has stated that it anticipates its second-quarter revenue could be impacted by up to six percentage points due to softening demand. Despite this, the airline has not revised its 2025 full-year guidance but expects to remain "solidly profitable" even if revenue pressures continue.
Alaska Airlines made this announcement following the release of its first-quarter results for 2025, which reported a net loss of $166 million on revenues exceeding $3 billion. The airline attributed the loss in part to recent economic volatility and has scheduled a call with analysts for further discussions.
While Alaska Airlines noted the stabilization of bookings, its guidance predicts a revenue impact of approximately six points in the second quarter due to reduced demand. The airline's adjusted earnings per share for 2025 is anticipated to range from $1.15 to $1.65. "Alaska is built for times like these with our relentless focus on safety, care, and performance," said Ben Minicucci, President & CEO of Alaska Air Group. He emphasized the company's focus on scaling, relevance, and loyalty at its hubs, and noted synergies recognized from its combination with Hawaiian Airlines.
