Flight cancellations, kam yields, aur currency headwinds ne profitability par pressure daala. Investors pilot hiring aur cost outlook par naye updates ka intezaar kar rahe hain.

Rupee ka depreciation, jo pichhle saal 88.79 se kamzor hokar 89.88 ho gaya hai, forex-linked costs ko aur badha raha hai.
