 JAL lenders to demand cuts to international service: report

TOKYO (AFP) - – The main creditors of bankrupt Japan Airlines are to demand drastic cuts to the carrier's international service in exchange for further cash injections, a report said Friday.
 
The company declared bankruptcy in January with 26 billion dollars of debt in one of Japan's biggest ever corporate failures, but has continued flying while it goes through painful state-led restructuring.
 
With JAL looking to a state-backed turnaround body for assistance, its four main lenders, including the Development Bank of Japan, have already waived massive amounts of debt.
 
The lenders have now decided not to shell out further financial aid without solid evidence that earnings are set to head north, the Nikkei business daily said.
 
The banks will demand JAL cuts both international and domestic services, while one proposal calls on the carrier to withdraw entirely from European and US flights and to focus on the profitable Asian region, the paper said.
 
The struggling airline currently runs more than 90 international flights, including code shares with other airlines, of which around a third are to Asian destinations.
 
The carrier posted a two billion dollar loss for the nine months to December and is planning more than 15,000 job cuts.
