Korean Airline Furloughs Staff Due to Middle East War Losses

Korean carrier puts cabin crew on 2 months unpaid leave as Middle East war drives $178M loss

South Korean low-cost carrier T'way Air will furlough some of its cabin crew without pay in May and June, the country's first airline to take such a step as the war on Iran sends jet fuel prices soaring and compounds losses that ballooned more than 20-fold last year.
