New virus: World airline company: Loss of about 6 trillion yen is estimated at 6:29 on March 6

As the spread of the new coronavirus has dramatically reduced the number of tourists, the annual revenue of airlines around the world is expected to decrease by 11% compared to the previous year and to a loss of approximately 6 trillion yen. It has also been predicted.

This was announced by the International Air Transport Association, an international airline affiliate, on Tuesday.

Global airline revenues are expected to decrease by 11% compared to the previous year, given that the impact on international flights to and from China and Hong Kong, as well as other parts of Asia and Europe, is expanding. It is a prospect.

That's $ 63 billion, or about ¥ 6.6 trillion in Japanese yen, of which 70% will be lost to airlines in the Asia Pacific region.

Losses are highest for Chinese airlines at $ 22.2 billion, followed by Japan, with losses estimated at $ 5.3 billion, or about $ 560 billion.

The IATA has called on governments to consider helping airlines, saying losses are expected to increase.
