## Resource

Airlines brace for record passenger numbers—5.1 billion expected this year—but profits are set to plummet by half compared to 2025, thanks to soaring fuel costs and Middle East disruptions. The average profit per passenger? Just $4.50. While Europe leads in profitability, Middle Eastern carriers face potential losses, painting a stark picture of industry resilience under financial strain.
