LONDON, Nov 30 (Reuters) - British airline easyJet
said on Tuesday it had seen some softening of trading in the
first quarter following the emergence of the Omicron variant,
but it remained well placed to handle uncertainty through its
financial year.
The group reported a full-year headline loss before tax of
1.14 billion pounds ($1.52 billion), at the higher end of
forecasts, and said first-quarter capacity was expected to be up
to around 65% of 2019 levels.
It expects capacity to have recovered close to 2019 levels
by the fourth quarter of 2022. It did not give a full financial
outlook however.
