Liam Lawler ’20 pitched Delta Airlines (DAL) to the Monday section of the Student Managed Investment Fund on February 17th, 2020. Delta Airlines is one of the world’s largest passenger airlines, as it provides scheduled air transportation for passengers and cargo throughout the United States and the globe. Its 800-plus aircraft fleet serves more than 180 million customers each year in 300 destinations and 50 countries. In recent years, Delta has grown to be the world’s largest airline by total revenue. Delta’s exceptional customer service allows the company to grow brand loyalty and capitalize on unique product offerings. In addition, Delta has been able to grow geographically through strategic joint ventures with other airlines. Finally, Delta has a high free cash flow, relative to its competitors, which is allowing it to reinvest in long-term equipment and technology. The Student Managed Investment Fund voted to buy 270 shares of DAL and sell 150 shares of CSX.
