- Alaska Air Group forecast a better-than-expected profit for the current quarter on Thursday, driven by strong travel demand and expectations for a strong summer season .
The Seattle, Washington-based airline would have reported an adjusted profit of about $5 million for the quarter, absent the groundings of its MAX 9 jets.To address the financial damages, Alaska Air received $162 million in initial cash compensation from Boeing, which has been excluded from its first-quarter results.
"Thanks to thoughtful capacity planning, network optimization, and diligent cost control, we are well positioned to carry our strong performance into the second quarter and beyond," CEO Ben Minicucci said.
