Delta’s latest earnings call made one thing unmistakably clear: the airline is no longer pretending to be everything to everyone. It wants to be the United States’ premium carrier, and it’s building its business model around that assumption.
Wow.
That’s as close as you’ll get to an airline executive saying the quiet part out loud. Delta isn’t chasing every traveler: it’s targeting those who are least likely to cut back when the economy slows. The strategy is deliberate: fewer bargain seekers, more customers who value experience and can afford to pay for it.
