In other recent news, Sun Country Airlines Holdings has been making headlines with its mixed financial performances and strategic plans. The airline disclosed that for Q3 2024, total revenue was at $249.5 million, mirroring the previous year's figures.

In a recent analysis, Goldman Sachs resumed coverage on Sun Country's stock, assigning it a Neutral rating. The firm highlighted the airline's robust margins and potential for margin growth into 2025, driven by improved pilot staffing and an expanded cargo service through a new contract with Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN). Goldman Sachs anticipates that Sun Country's rising profitability will lead to an uptick in free cash flow over the medium term, supported by the airline's current fleet and strategic contracts.
