Delta Air Lines Inc' rank improves

The company ranking improved in 2010, moving up the Fortune 500 list to 84th compared to 111th in 2009. This was based on its 2009 revenue of $22,697 million (a change of 6 million compared to 2010) and profits of $-8,922 million (a change of $7 million compared to 2009).

Another point of view

To many investors, profits are more important than revenue a company earns, If the Fortune 500 was ranked by profits instead of revenue then Delta Air Lines Inc would be ranked 473rd rather than 84th due to the fact it made a loss of $-1,237 million in 2010.
