Prediction: Delta Air Lines Stock Will Prove Wall Street Right and Hit $100 by 2028

Delta Air Lines is positioned to reach $100 per share by 2028, supported by Wall Street's $108 consensus target. The airline has demonstrated resilience by diversifying revenue streams through premium cabins, ancillary services, and loyalty programs, allowing it to absorb significant fuel cost increases while maintaining strong free cash flow guidance of $3-4 billion for 2026. With a forward P/E ratio of 11.5-13.2x and management's stress test showing profitability even with $4 billion in additional fuel costs, Delta appears less cyclical than typical airline stocks.
