Vote on Wage Agreement: Air Canada flight attendants are set to vote on a tentative wage agreement, with many crew members expressing skepticism about its approval. The agreement was reached after a four-day strike that highlighted demands for compensation from check-in to clock-out.
Compensation Concerns: While the proposed contract includes significant wage increases, flight attendants feel it does not adequately address the rising cost of living, particularly in expensive cities like Toronto, leading some to consider voting against it.

Reason
UBS assumed coverage of United Airlines with a Buy rating with a price target of $142, up from $128. The market is not fully appreciating United's ability to capitalize on the tailwinds from premium and loyalty growth, which should enable the airline to generate strong RASM growth over the next few years despite mid single digit available seat miles, the analyst tells investors in a research note. UBS sees the potential for 80-100 basis points of pre-tax margin expansion in each of FY26 and FY27.

Reason
Citi analyst John Godyn initiated coverage of United Airlines with a Buy rating and $132 price target. The firm believes the setup is positive for the airlines with an "elongated mid-cycle" beginning in 2026. Citi sees the largest beneficiaries as being the "supermajors." The large airlines offer the most favorable risk/reward, the analyst tells investors in a research note. On the other side, Citi believes the legacy low-cost carriers will be underperformers through the cycle.
