Certainly LUV isn't a classic value stock. But there are positives for the company going forward, some of which were mentioned in the article. These are the reasons I purchased the stock.

1. As you said, best of breed
2. Contraction in the sector
3. Lower fuel costs widening margins
4. Strong balance sheet
5. Low Enterprise Value to EBIDTA ratio
6. Excess cash flow
7. Share buyback in place
