VLRS

BRCB, CSIQ and VLRS have been added to the Zacks Rank #5 (Strong Sell) List on October 16, 2026.

LTM reported 6.2% traffic growth and 7.7% capacity expansion in September 2026, but its load factor fell as capacity growth outpaced demand.

CPA's September 2026 traffic surges 17.1% year over year, outpacing capacity growth of 15.7% as strong air travel demand lifts its load factor to 87.9%.

Volaris' September traffic rose faster than capacity, lifting consolidated load factor to 84.4% as passenger volumes increased 4.2% year over year.

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Controladora Vuela Compañía de Aviación, S.A.B. de C.V. (NYSE: VLRS and BMV: VOLAR) (“Volaris” or “the Company”), the ultra-low-cost carrier (ULCC) serving Mexico, the United States, Central and South America, reports its September 2026 preliminary traffic results.

I rate Volaris a cautious buy, emphasizing operational recovery and macro-driven upside potential. VLRS is emerging from significant fleet groundings, with improving load factors and strong pricing power despite ongoing jet fuel headwinds. Financial health remains solid: liquidity improved to $824M in Q2, net debt/EBITDAR is stable at 3.2–3.3x, and there are no near-term maturities.

Here, we present the traffic numbers for August 2026 for four airline companies: CPA, LTM, VLRS and RYAAY.

VLRS saw August traffic rise 15.4% year over year, while capacity grew 15.8%, pushing consolidated load factor down 0.3 points to 84.4%.
