According to a report by the Economic Times, the financial reports recently released by a number of U.S. air operators show that the war in the Middle East has led to a sharp increase in jet fuel prices, airlines are responding to the impact by raising ticket prices, baggage fees and cutting flights, but the outlook remains under severe pressure.<\/p>\n

U. S. Airlines reported on the 23rd that this year is expected to be due to the increase in jet fuel costs more than $400 million. The company forecast adjusted earnings of -0.4 to $1.10 a share this year, well below its prewar forecast of $1.70 to $2.70 a share. The company reported a net loss of $382 million in the first quarter.<\/p>\n

Southwest, which had forecast earnings of $4 a share earlier this year, has suspended some routes and cut its capacity growth forecast because of operating pressures. United lowered its earnings per share forecast for this year to $7-$11 from $12-$14, and its chief executive said fares would need to rise 15-20 per cent to fully offset higher jet fuel prices, but the move will lead to a contraction in demand. Delta said it would cut capacity if fuel costs did not improve significantly. Alaska said the surge in jet fuel prices would result in $600 million in additional costs, and it expected to lose about $1 per share in the second quarter.<\/p>\n

The average price of jet fuel in North was $167.33 a barrel in the week to April 17, down 7.6 per cent from the previous month and still up 82.6 per cent from a year earlier, according to IATA monitoring data. (Chen Shiyi)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
