Now might seem like a curious time to consider the best airline stocks to buy.
After being beat down by the COVID-19 pandemic, gasoline prices are skyrocketing, with jet fuel prices up more than 126% in a year
The U.S. Global Jets ETF (ticker: JETS), an exchange-traded fund, or ETF
that tracks the airline industry, dropped 9.3% between April 18 and May 18
But people still need and want to fly
so while the pandemic and fuel prices present near-term headwinds, airline stocks can still thrive over the long term
If you're willing to weather some near-term headwinds for potential long-term gain
