The American airline Delta Airlines reports an adjusted profit per share of 2.36 dollars for the second quarter of the year, down from 2.68 dollars a year earlier. Analysts had on average expected 2.38 dollars, according to a compilation of forecasts from Bloomberg.

The turnover amounted to 15.4 billion dollars, approximately 162 billion Swedish kronor. It was in line with expectations.

The company is struggling, just like its competitors, with increased costs. This includes maintenance costs as well as personnel costs.

According to CEO Ed Bastian, the transatlantic flights have, on the other hand, been a boost for the company, among other things because Americans have traveled to Europe, as a result of the strong dollar, to attend Taylor Swift's concerts, reports Financial Times.
