This made the group the worst-performing S&amp;P 500 industry for the year, outside of oil and gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The selloff also created an exciting investment opportunity that many young and nontraditional investors, locked down at home and with&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usfunds.com\/resource\/how-robinhood-investors-beat-buffett-at-his-own-game\/\">record disposable income,<\/a>&nbsp;took advantage of. According to data from Robinhood, the commission-free securities trading platform preferred by millennial and Gen Z investors, distressed airline stocks became one of the year\u2019s breakout hits, with trading volumes hitting historic levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I believe airline stocks appear just as attractive today as they did in 2020. The 14-day relative strength index (RSI) shows that these equities are more oversold now than at any other time since the pandemic first grounded commercial aircraft. Had you bought shares of global airlines in March 2020, when the RSI fell under 20, you would have seen returns of approximately 130% over the next 12 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Will the same happen again this time?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"434\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-global-airline-stocks-oversold-10202023.jpg\" alt=\"Global Airline Stocks Most Oversold Since Start of the Pandemic\" class=\"wp-image-198235 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-global-airline-stocks-oversold-10202023.jpg 900w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-global-airline-stocks-oversold-10202023-700x338.jpg 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-global-airline-stocks-oversold-10202023-300x145.jpg 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-global-airline-stocks-oversold-10202023-768x370.jpg 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; aspect-ratio: 900\/434;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-amid-war-and-rising-costs-u-s-air-travel-continues-to-soar\">Amid War And Rising Costs, U.S. Air Travel Continues To Soar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to keep in mind that the causes of both selloffs are vastly different. Whereas commercial air travel across the globe came to a screeching halt in 2020 due to the spread of an as-yet unknown virus, carriers today are grappling with a Middle East at war, spiking fuel prices and persistently high borrowing costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>United Airlines said as much during its third-quarter earnings call last week. Despite reporting record profits in the quarter ended September 30, shares of United tumbled 9.6% on Wednesday after it warned shareholders it lowered fourth-quarter projections due to the Israel-Hamas War and oil prices topping $90 per barrel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Like many other airlines, United has suspended flights to Tel Aviv amid the two-week-old conflict that\u2019s already taken thousands of lives, including approximately 30 American lives. The company said it won\u2019t resume flights to the Israeli city \u201cuntil conditions allow,\u201d according to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2023-10-17\/united-air-forecasts-profit-miss-on-high-fuel-costs-israeli-war?embedded-checkout=true\">reporting by Bloomberg.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The war is certainly a headwind to travel demand, especially if it expands beyond Israel and Gaza\u2019s borders and\/or is drawn out longer than anticipated (did anyone expect the skirmish between Russia and Ukraine to still be raging over a year and half later?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the time being, however, U.S. consumers don\u2019t appear ready to change their travel habits just yet, even as an overwhelming majority (85%) of Americans say they\u2019re concerned the Israel-Hamas War could escalate to a Middle East-wide engagement, according to a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/poll.qu.edu\/poll-release?releaseid=3880\">Quinnipiac poll,<\/a>&nbsp;and even as the State Department issues a \u201cworldwide caution\u201d for U.S. citizens&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/travel.state.gov\/content\/travel\/en\/traveladvisories\/traveladvisories\/worldwide-caution.html\">planning to travel overseas.<\/a>&nbsp;Since October 7, when Hamas attacked Israel, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) has screened more passengers per day than they did on corresponding days in 2019. So far this year through October 18, millions more people have boarded commercial planes in the U.S. compared to the same period four years ago.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"474\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-2023-travel-boom-10202023.png\" alt=\"Total number of passengers screened at US airports, year-to-date through October 18\" class=\"wp-image-198234 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-2023-travel-boom-10202023.png 900w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-2023-travel-boom-10202023-700x369.png 700w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-2023-travel-boom-10202023-300x158.png 300w, https:\/\/ibkrcampus.com\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-2023-travel-boom-10202023-768x404.png 768w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 900px; aspect-ratio: 900\/474;\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-airlines-are-leveraging-rewards-and-co-branded-credit-cards\"><strong>How Airlines Are Leveraging Rewards And Co-Branded Credit Cards<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason we like airlines is due to their resilience and ability to adapt. This isn\u2019t the first time that the industry has faced and prevailed over a challenging international business climate. Carriers have managed to do this thanks in large part to the implementation of new revenue streams, including loyalty programs and co-branded credit cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Co-branded cards have gained a lot of traction in the broader travel sector, airlines specifically. These cards enable consumers to earn loyalty points and other perks, potentially improving customer retention. A couple of examples you might be familiar with are Southwest\u2019s Rapid Rewards and American Express\u2019 Delta Skymiles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These loyalty programs are big business, accounting for roughly&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ltimindtree.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/08\/LTIMindtree-POV-Co-Branded-Credit-Cards-Driving-Customer-Loyalty-and-Growth-in-Travel.pdf?pdf=download\">40% to 50% of airlines\u2019 market value<\/a>&nbsp;in 2019, according to consultancy firm LTIMindtree. That year, United generated $5.3 billion from the sale of miles, representing a significant portion of its revenue. Delta followed a similar trajectory, selling $4 billion in airline miles to banks, equal to 14% of its operational revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below are the top 10 most valuable airline loyalty programs in billions of dollars, as of this year. The data comes courtesy of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/onpointloyalty.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/02\/On-Point-Loyalty-Report-top-100-Most-Valuable-Airline-Programs-2023.pdf\">On Point Loyalty,<\/a>&nbsp;which analyzed 170 commercial passenger airlines, using over 50 primary variables for each program:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"\/campus\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/10\/COMM-most-valuable-airlines-10202023.png\" alt=\"Top 10 Most Valuable Airline Loyalty Programs (2023)\" class=\"wp-image-198233 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As I\u2019ve said before, ancillary revenue generators such as credit cards and other loyalty programs have become pivotal assets for airlines. With the significant value of these programs now clear, the airline industry is recognizing the vast potential they hold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8212;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Originally Posted October 23, 2023 &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usfunds.com\/resource\/how-airlines-boost-revenue-with-co-branded-credit-cards\/\">How Airlines Boost Revenue With Co-Branded Credit Cards<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All opinions expressed and data provided are subject to change without notice.
