Flagship carrier Air China Ltd may face three billion yuan in foreign exchange losses while China Southern Airlines Co, Asia's biggest by passengers, is looking at a potential hit of four billion yuan and China Eastern Airlines Corp may lose about 1.5 billion yuan, according to Taipei-based Capital Securities Corp.
