Singapore Airlines Six months financial results deficit of over 260 billion yen Corona impact November 7, 3:51

Singapore Airlines announced its financial results for half a year until September, while the demand for aviation fell sharply due to the spread of the new coronavirus infection, and the deficit in Japanese yen exceeded 260 billion yen due to a sharp drop in passengers. I did.

On the 6th, Singapore Airlines announced the financial results of the entire group for half a year until September, and sales were about 120 billion yen in Japanese yen, a decrease of 80.4% compared to the same period of the previous year. The final profit / loss was a deficit of more than 260 billion yen in Japanese yen.



The main reason for this is that the number of passengers on passenger flights has dropped significantly due to immigration restrictions imposed by each country in response to the spread of the new coronavirus infection.



Singapore Airlines has resumed operations only on some international flights such as Japan, but it is expected that passengers will not recover significantly for a while, so it will secure profits other than passenger flights by increasing the number of freight routes. I am aiming for it.



Singapore Airlines, which does not operate domestic flights, has been in the final deficit for the first time since the company was established in 1972, and the one-year financial results until March have been severe, such as deciding to reduce 4,300 employees, which is about 15% of the entire group. The business situation continues.
