1312 ET - Southwest Airlines launched 24-hour operations with its first red-eye flights last month, and is looking to ramp the offering to a total of 33 markets by this summer, CEO Bob Jordan says at the 2025 JPMorgan Industrials Conference. The airline has been using red-eye flying and lowering the turnaround time on its jets to increase aircraft utilization, and it expects the moves to fund growth going forward, the CEO says. Conversely, United Airlines is pulling back on red-eye flying. CEO Scott Kirby says at the same conference that red eyes are generally unprofitable, especially when overall demand is softening.
