Singapore Airlines hat im vergangenen Quartal einen Verlust in Höhe von 1,123 Mrd. SGD (ca. 694 Mio. EUR) verbucht. Im Vorjahr war noch ein Gewinn in Höhe von 111 Mio. SGD erzielt worden. Das Passagieraufkommen gemessen auf Basis der Revenue Passenger Kilometres fiel im Vergleich zum Vorjahres-Quartal um 99,5%.
“The Group entered the first quarter at a time when market conditions were deteriorating rapidly due to the spread of Covid-19 globally. Demand for air travel evaporated as travel restrictions and border controls were imposed around the world to contain the spread of the virus. Consequently, passenger carriage (measured in revenue passenger-kilometres) fell by 99.4% year-on-year for Singapore Airlines, 99.8% for SilkAir and 99.9% for Scoot, resulting in a 99.5% decline for the Group.”
