Just announced:
United Airlines (UAL) will hold a conference call to discuss first-quarter 2013 financial results on Thursday, April 25, 2013, at 9:30 a.m. CT/10:30 a.m. ET. A live, listen-only webcast of the conference call will be available at ir.united.com.
For those who are interested, the call (and the questions that are asked and their tone) gives a very good window into where UA is going and how much pressure management is getting.
I expect this call to be particularly interesting. Loss for the quarter (and revenue figures, so we can all quit speculating... :D) will also be released.

P.S. (taking from their press release) AA just reported a net profit of $8 million (excluding $349 million in reorganization costs and special items.) In the same period a year earlier, AA lost $248 million. Including items.Revenue rose 1% to $6.1 billion, on 1.3% less capacity.
During the quarter, consolidated passenger revenue per available seat mile grew 2.6%. Domestic PRASM rose 2.7%, "with particular strength in Los Angeles and Chicago." International PRASM grew 2.6%. In Latin America, PRASM was "robust" and the company said "targeted growth in the region will be accretive to earnings."
That their strongest growth was at LA and ORD, the two places they compete head to head with UAL, says a lot.
