    United CEO: Strong Demand to Offset Fuel Costs into 2027

    United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby expects oil prices to gradually decline through 2027 but remain elevated, allowing airlines to pass on higher fuel costs through sustained fare increases. Fares have already risen over 20% this year to offset fuel costs driven by the Iran war. Kirby argues that reduced domestic capacity from Spirit Airlines' collapse, plus higher labor, maintenance, and airport fees, have boosted pricing power, ending ultra-low fares. United is adding 10 international routes, betting on strong demand.
