JAL Group CEO and President Haruka Nishimatsu showed his strong wish to achieve a single-year profit for fiscal year of 2006, which is likely to be a big turning point for the future business, at a joint interview with aviation journalists on October 17 this year. Although JALhad a hard time for the first half of FY2006 because of slow recovery of both domestic and international passenger demands and of highfuel price, Nishimatsu is confident that JAL can recover the loss through the second half of FY2006, relying on recovery of passenger demands and fuel surcharges on its international flights.
