Why United Airlines has had such a stellar year despite being Boeing's biggest customer
Briefly

"Despite massive headwinds across the entire airline industry, United has outperformed most of its peers, with its stock price up 148% in 2024."
"Clark Johns of Alton Aviation Consultancy told Business Insider that United's advantageous hub structure and hundreds of incoming narrow-body aircraft helped position the airline to better manage Boeing-related headwinds."
"Basic economy is still a major revenue stream for them, and they're expanding their premium seating," Johns said. "In some senses, they're kind of firing on all cylinders."
"Analysts at HSBC raised their price target for United in December to $116 - about 14% above current levels - citing its international network as a key driver."
