Malaysia Airlines expects oil at US$70 a barrel and hedges aggressively

MALAYSIA Airlines is hedging that oil prices will reach US$70 a barrel toward the end of this year as the loss-making flag carrier makes sudden bid to win profitability.

"At the moment we are hedged about 65 per cent of the current year at about a little bit north of $60," CEO Peter Bellew told Bloomberg. 



"We are quite aggressively hedging 12 months ahead on a quarter-to-quarter basis and taking a fairly prudent approach to it," he said.



Crude oil futures were trading at $52.66 a barrel in Singapore.
