Cramer has often called Delta Air Lines, Inc. (NYSE:DAL) “best of breed”. Here’s what he said about the company in the recent episode:

“Of course, not everything is rosy in travel. While I like Delta, United, and Alaska Airlines, ways to play travel, there’s still some laggard, haggard companies out there that can act like skunks at a profits party.”

In an episode that aired in January, talking about Delta (NYSE:DAL), a provider of scheduled air transportation, Cramer said:

“The airlines are a changed breed. They’re no longer building up capacity to meet… demand. Instead, they’re doing their best to keep capacity tight and prevent a ruinous price war. It’s still the right time to own Delta because the air traffic remains robust and profits are flowing like never before.”

Furthermore, over the next three to five years, Delta (NYSE:DAL) aims for mid-teens operating margins, 10% earnings per share growth, and free cash flow of $3 billion to $5 billion. For 2025, the company expects capacity growth of 3% to 4%, mid-single-digit revenue growth, and low single-digit increases in non-fuel unit costs.
