Yup. Operating margin 13.2% (up 2.3%). The airline that must not be named (DL, oops) was up 2.6% so very comparable in improvement. And with fuel costs well down YOY, with those MAX's parked and the lucrative India flights not running until September it's a case of 2.3% improvement in an operationally "bad quarter".
Looks very solid. Can't wait to listen to the earnings call (not live, I have meetings tomorrow morning).
