Depends how much capital you use to make those profits.

Same as investing. Making an annual return of 100,000 is amazing if.you only have 400,000 in capital. If you have 40,000,000 in capital it is terrible.

And given that interest and depreciation are two of the major expenses airlines face, EIBTDA is a terrible.measure for that industry. But, good luck.
