Probably at $110. Standby for "paper hedging loss of 2 billion". It hard to keep up with this year's missed opportunities

And a fair bit of the profit last time was from hedging. Geniuses.

Yes, the fuel hedging gains offset the 2.6 Billion loss attributed to "others"

From: HK- A little bit of industrial China in every breath you take.
Makes getting caught for illegal price fixing look cheap! Now if you and I came up with an illegal way to loose a single dollar for the 'group' what do you think may have happened to us?

Rumours are that CX hedges 50% of fuel required. No idea of price.

Just read that Ryanair hedged entire year at 96USD (assume financial year) so guess there will be a lot of cancellations with them.

EasyJ I think hedged at 86USD.
