Why Delta Airlines Stock Jumped 6.6% Today
Shares of Delta Air Lines (NYSE: DAL) stock closed up 6.6% on Tuesday, after the company reported respectable performance on its operating statistics for September, despite a weather-plagued month.
Delta noted that in September, "Hurricanes Irma and Maria impacted [its] operations across the Caribbean and Southeastern United States," and added: "Hurricane Irma significantly impacted operations with 2,200 flights cancelled from Sept. 7-12 at airports in Florida, the Caribbean, and Georgia, including the company's Atlanta hub."
