United Airlines has reported full-year pre-tax profits of $4.3bn and operating revenues of $59.1bn – the highest in its history – for 2025; a set of figures which beat stock market forecasts.
The US airline carried a record 181 million passengers, ranked second in the US in terms of punctuality and had the lowest amount of seat cancellations of any American carrier.
“Our results are built on winning more and more brand-loyal customers — it’s clear they get the most value flying United,” said CEO Scott Kirby. “This was the highest-revenue quarter in United’s history and the highest quarterly RASM of the year providing strong revenue momentum that is continuing into 2026.”
