NATIONAL carrier Singapore Airlines' bottomline for the third quarter sank 27 per cent to S$284 million from a year ago's restated profit of S$389 million, hurt by a higher jet fuel bill and share of losses of its joint ventures, chiefly low-cost Thai airline NokScoot.
The share of losses of the group's joint ventures totalling S$27 million added more salt to injury to the airline, which was already hit with a 22 per cent rise in net fuel costs over the period.
