Singapore Airlines took a 44% profit hit in the first half as fuel costs soared, Nikkei Asia reported.
The report comes from Nikkei Asia alone; no other outlet in today's intake had confirmed it.
The pressure has been building across transport and energy costs. Japan girded for a new wave of food price hikes as tanker rates soared, Nikkei Asia reported . France tapped its strategic diesel reserves, and diesel prices fell, Euronews reported .
The stakes sit in the pattern: fuel and transport costs are squeezing businesses, from Japanese food prices to French diesel . Singapore Airlines has now put a number on that squeeze, Nikkei Asia reported.
What is known is the 44% first-half profit hit and the cause, soaring fuel costs, as reported by Nikkei Asia. What is not yet known is the size of the profit in absolute terms, the fuel bill behind it, or what the airline plans to do next — none of that appeared in today's intake.
