DALLAS (AP) — Traffic and average prices both weakened in September, but analysts believe Southwest Airlines still made money in the third quarter.

Southwest, which carries the most passengers within the U.S. of any airline, is scheduled to report financial results on Thursday. The report will cover the last two months of the summer vacation season, when airlines make much of their money, and the beginning of autumn, when business travelers replace vacationers in the sky.
