Cargo could blunt some of the pain for SIA's Q1 earnings, but recovery remains elusive
FATTER yields in the cargo business could be a bright spot for Singapore Airlines (SIA) when it reports its first quarter update next week.
The national carrier has already flagged a material operating loss, marked-to-market losses from fuel hedges and a one-off charge totalling S$123.6 million from the liquidation of Nok Scoot.
Shukor Yusof, founder of aviation consultancy Endau Analytics, estimated the group's net loss could total S$770 million to S$800 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020.
