  • Wall Street looked for $1.47 in earnings per share on $18.57 billion in revenue, while the carrier previously set a target to lead the industry with about $1 billion in profit for the June-quarter.
  • The Atlanta-based company achieved net income of $2.44 per share, while free cash flow reached $1.2 billion and Delta trimmed adjusted net debt to $13.5 billion.
