Japan Airlines reaches record revenue milestone of 2.01 trillion yen in fiscal 2025, driven by strong travel demand. The carrier reported a 9.1 percent revenue increase and a remarkable 28.6 percent jump in net profit to 137.60 billion yen. Domestic passenger traffic grew 5.8 percent to 38.23 million travelers, while international passengers increased 5.6 percent to 8.01 million. The surge reflects robust recovery in both business and leisure travel segments, alongside increased inbound tourism. However, JAL faces headwinds ahead, projecting a 20.1 percent decline in net profit for the current fiscal year due to rising maintenance costs and fuel expenses. The airline plans to implement fuel surcharge increases for international flights in May and will rely on government relief measures to manage cost pressures.
