It’s the turn of America’s low-cost airlines to report third-quarter earnings. Don’t expect a huge amount of positivity.

Southwest Airlines , the largest U.S. discounter, reports Thursday and investors will be hoping for something unexpected to arrest the stock’s recent slide. The shares have fallen 38% since their July peak, and are 28% down in 2023. Spirit Airlines is also expected to release earnings Thursday, along with Frontier Group .
