By

Japan Airlines (TYO:9201) will post a net profit of 110 billion yen for the year ending March 2027, down 20% year on year, while revenue will rise to 2 trillion yen, according to a Thursday statement.

The carrier said global travel demand and fuel costs remain uncertain amid geopolitical tensions, including the Iran conflict, which has pushed up jet fuel prices.

For the year ended March 2026, Japan Airlines posted a net profit of 137.6 billion yen on revenue of 2.01 trillion yen. The company also said it will take an 18% stake in Lifenet Insurance as part of efforts to expand non-aviation revenue.
