"I am extremely proud of the United team's performance during the first quarter of 2023," says Scott Kirby, CEO, United Airlines. "Our industry-leading operational performance contributed to an all-time high operating cash flow in the first quarter and keeps us on track to achieve our cost targets for the full year. We are watching the macroeconomic risks carefully but demand remains strong, especially internationally, where we are growing at twice the domestic rate. We expect all of these factors will keep us on track to achieve our full-year adjusted diluted EPS target."

The management is expecting an adjusted diluted EPS of $3.50-4 in the second quarter. The airline has reiterated the full-year adjusted diluted EPS target of $10-12, the release added.
