SIA suffers heavy loss but sees demand 'gradually recovering'

[NM]

From ATW Daily News:

Singapore Airlines reported a S$158.8 million ($114.4 million) loss in its fiscal second quarter ended Sept. 30, reversed from a S$323.8 million profit in the year-ago period, but said that "advanced bookings indicate that demand for air travel has stopped declining and is gradually recovering."

I am about to book 2 J Class HKG-SIN-MEL return tickets for A$3600 each for Jan next year which is $2,000 cheaper than Qantas (and better seats). The same airfare can be bought up to Oct next year and they guarantee it won't be lower between now and the time you fly.

That is one good way to get people to book in advance.
