(Atlanta, GA) -- Delta Air Lines is beating expectations in its latest earnings report, but it expects turbulent times ahead.  

Delta posted almost nine-and-a-half billion dollars in revenue in the fourth quarter, which was its highest figure since late 2019. However, the current Omicron surge is expected to result in a loss in the first quarter of this year.  

Delta's President said travel is expected to recover after President's Day weekend next month.
