Southwest Airlines

Southwest Airlines is the largest domestic air carrier in the United States by passengers boarded. Southwest operates nearly 800 aircraft in an all-Boeing 737 fleet. Despite offering some longer routes and a few perks for business travelers, the airline predominantly specializes in short-haul, leisure flights operated in a single, open-seating cabin configuration in a point-to-point network. In late 2025, Southwest will modify its cabins to offer some seats with extra legroom and will update its ticketing process and merchandising to offer assigned seats and more fare categories including a basic economy class that will more directly compete with other airlines' offerings.

Southwest was also the first airline to incorporate Honeywell&#8217;s Integrated Multi-Mode Receiver technology into its fleet.

Southwest Airlines To Equip Entire Boeing 737 Fleet With Honeywell's Runway Safety Technology

Honeywell (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HON#NASDAQ">HON</a>) today announced that Southwest Airlines (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) is in the process of activating its entire Boeing 737 aircraft fleet with SmartRunway and SmartLanding software designed to increase runway safety. This capability is enabled via the Honeywell Enhanced Ground Proximity Warning System (EGPWS) already on Southwest aircraft, and more than 700 aircraft have been activated to date.
&nbsp;
SmartRunway and SmartLanding helps increase flight crew situational awareness during taxi, take-off and landing with aural and visual alerts and promotes stabilized approaches. It proactively notifies pilots when they are moving too fast, fly too high or are directed toward the wrong runway, helping to break the chain of events that may lead to runway accidents. SmartRunway and SmartLanding is certified for most Airbus and Boeing aircraft, as well as numerous business aviation platforms.&nbsp;

Shares of airline companies are trading lower after an Air India 787-8 Dreamliner crashed near the Ahmedabad airport.

President Donald Trump's pick for the Federal Aviation Administration, or FAA, administrator job says that upgrading the Air Traffic Control would need a significant investment.
What Happened: Bryan Bedford, CEO of Republic Airways Holdings and Trump's nominee, says that upgrading the Air Traffic Control system would be his primary responsibility, Bloomberg reported <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-06-10/faa-nominee-says-air-traffic-needs-significant-investment">on</a> Tuesday.
"We must agree that our Air Traffic Control system needs significant investment," Bedford stated in a written testimony ahead of Wednesday's confirmation hearing before the Senate committee.
The report also suggests Bedford asked Trump if he could meet with the FAA before accepting the nomination. He said the senior members of the FAA expressed "serious concerns" with issues like aging tech and problems with the workforce.
Trump's new Big, Beautiful Bill has allocated <a href="https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1/text">over</a> $12.5 billion to the FAA to address technological updates, as well as staffing woes, among other issues.
Why It Matters: The news comes in as the FAA has been on the receiving end of criticism for a number of safety issues and staffing woes. The agency also shared recently that it could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/05/45341520/faa-mulls-cutting-flights-at-newark-airport-amid-staffing-woes-and-equipment-failures-report">scale operations back</a> at New Jersey's Newark airport, citing staff shortages and equipment failures.
The agency was also slammed for a crash in January this year, which resulted in the deaths of 64 people, including the passengers and crew, when an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/travel/25/01/43343648/all-60-passengers-4-crew-members-onboard-american-airlines-jet-feared-dead-after-midair-collision-official-says">American Airlines plane crashed </a>with a U.S. Army Black Hawk Helicopter at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.
Safety in the U.S. Aviation industry has become a top priority for airline operators once again, as Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) recently announced a new policy mandating passengers to keep portable chargers in line of sight when in use <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/travel/25/06/45766881/southwests-new-battery-policy-in-spotlight-after-a-smoking-battery-charger-diverts-flight">to avoid fires</a>.
Bedford would also have to deal with aircraft manufacturer Boeing Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BA#NYSE">BA</a>), which has been under scrutiny and faced criticism after multiple incidents, including <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42716905/boeing-in-spotlight-after-fatal-737-800-crash-in-south-korea-stock-declined-28-amid-deepening-2024-challenges">a fatal crash</a> involving Boeing aircraft that raised questions about the company's safety and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44811150/faulty-bathroom-latches-could-cost-boeing-34-million-following-faa-directive">quality standards</a>.

Shares of companies within the broader industrial sector are trading higher, supported by broad market strength, after better-than-expected nonfarm payrolls data eased concerns about an imminent economic slowdown.

A Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) flight on its way to Tampa, Florida, had to be diverted to South Carolina after a passenger's portable battery pack started smoking.
What Happened: An hour into its journey, flight 1844 from Baltimore to Tampa was diverted to Myrtle Beach following the incident, Business Insider reported <a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/southwest-flight-diverted-day-after-new-rules-for-portable-chargers-2025-6">on</a> Monday.
"A customer&#8217;s battery charger apparently overheated and began to smoke. We appreciate the professionalism of our flight crew in swiftly handling the situation," a spokesperson for the airline cited in the report said. They added that the airline is investigating the incident.
Why It Matters: The news comes in days after the airline introduced an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45541427/southwest-airlines-announces-passengers-must-keep-portable-chargers-in-plain-sight-amid-fears-of-lithium-battery-fires">industry-first policy </a>that required passengers to keep all portable chargers and battery packs in line of sight while in use to prevent any fire incidents.
Earlier this year, passengers in an Air Busan flight were evacuated after a portable charger in an overhead bin caught fire.
The company also ended its decades-old ‘Two Bags Fly Free' policy recently, which will reportedly help the airline generate <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45639000/southwest-airlines-to-reap-430-million-in-profit-from-new-baggage-fees-says-analyst">$430 million in profits</a>, according to analysts.
Elsewhere, the company also announced its first trans-Pacific partnership after it <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/travel/25/06/45719330/southwest-airlines-makes-first-trans-pacific-move-with-china-airlines-partnership">signed an agreement</a> with Taiwan's China Airlines Group. The agreement would take effect in 2026.

In the current market session, Southwest Airlines Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) stock price is at $32.98, after a 1.21% drop. However, over the past month, the company's stock spiked by 10.51%, and in the past year, by 18.62%. Shareholders might be interested in knowing whether the stock is overvalued, even if the company is not performing up to par in the current session.

<h3>Evaluating Southwest Airlines P/E in Comparison to Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of 10.7 in the Passenger Airlines industry, Southwest Airlines Inc. has a higher P/E ratio of 37.51. Shareholders might be inclined to think that Southwest Airlines Inc. might perform better than its industry group. It's also possible that the stock is overvalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1748883619_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

A Look Into Southwest Airlines Inc's Price Over Earnings

Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) is set to launch its first <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/n45717306/southwest-airlines-announces-future-partnership-with-china-airlines" rel="noreferrer noopener">trans-Pacific partnership</a> through an interline agreement with Taiwan&#8217;s China Airlines Group.
The two carriers announced the plan during the International Air Transport Association&#8217;s 2025 Annual General Meeting in New Delhi, India.
The agreement, expected to take effect in early 2026, will enable travelers to book joint itineraries across both airlines, connecting U.S. cities to Asia via shared West Coast gateways like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and Ontario, California.

Southwest&#8217;s COO, Andrew Watterson, said the collaboration aligns with the airline&#8217;s goal of expanding customer access through high-value global links. Kevin Chen, President of China Airlines, noted the partnership would improve connectivity for travelers within the U.S. and to destinations in Asia.
Southwest is building on its recent international push, which includes a partnership with Icelandair that connects U.S. travelers to Europe. Additional gateway cities, Orlando, Pittsburgh, and Raleigh-Durham, are set to join that network in July.
The tie-up with China Airlines reflects Southwest&#8217;s broader effort to enhance global connectivity and support international growth through targeted partnerships.
