Delta also subtly shifted its profit outlook for the full year, saying it will be “around the midpoint” of its long-held range of $6 to $7 a share, excluding the 45-cent impact from the technology outage. The airline had said Sept. 12 that it expected per-share earnings “at or above the midpoint” of that range.

Delta struggled to recover from the massive IT outage in July after a failed software update from cybersecurity company CrowdStrike.
