Aviation: Keep Your Seat-belts On?
Description
The global aviation sector is facing a fresh wave of disruption. This time, it is not just about higher costs, but that the entire system is facing pressure at multiple levels, with the availability and cost of jet fuel coming into sharp focus. We are seeing signs of broader impact, including flight cuts and shifting network strategies, to mounting financial pressure on weaker airlines as costs rise faster than they can pass on. We also ask if Kuala Lumpur International Airport can find an upside in this turbulent situation though the recent baggage handling disruption has cast doubt on it.
