REX got bargain basement pricing on their initial 737s which were signed at the time when no one knew how the industry would recover from COVID. The fact that they have only been marginally profitable, at best, despite these super low prices makes you wonder how they are going to cope as prices now adjust up to market levels particularly as leasing companies will look at REX and load them up with a risk premium.
