Southwest Airlines Co

Southwest Airlines Co. (Southwest) (NYSE: LUV) operates Southwest Airlines, a passenger airline that provides scheduled air transportation in the United States and near-international markets. The Company's fare products include four categories: Wanna Get Away, Wanna Get Away Plus, Anytime, and Business Select to provide customers options when choosing a fare. It also offers ancillary services, such as EarlyBird Check-In, Upgraded Boarding, and transportation of pets and unaccompanied minors, in accordance with Southwest’s respective policies.

As per our previous Global Travel and Leisure Report  published on ‘LUV’ on April 16, 2026, we provided a ‘Buy’ stance on the stock at USD 41.09 based on “Southwest Airlines’ expected 2026 earnings reacceleration, incremental revenue contribution from assigned seating, extra-legroom products and Basic Economy fares, continued network optimization, improving corporate travel demand trends, and disciplined cost execution supported by strong operational reliability metrics” and the stock price has now moved up by ~17.01% since then and has attained resistance 1 and resistance 2.
