Of the $4.4 billion, $1.1 billion went to expenditure including operating expenses, showing that it costs a lot to run an airline, even though its capacity is greatly reduced. A portion of that $1.1 billion was also spent on refunding customers\u2019 plane tickets as their <a class=\"thirstylink\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Expedia\" href=\"https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/go\/expedia\/\" data-nojs=\"1\" data-shortcode=\"true\">flights<\/a> were canceled due to Covid-19. Another part of that $1.1 billion was burnt on maturing fuel-hedging trades.<\/p>\n<h3>Amount spent almost as much as combined losses by 3 airlines<\/h3>\n<p>To give some perspective, Hong Kong\u2019s Cathay Pacific lost $1.75 billion in the 1st half of 2020. Australia\u2019s Qantas Airways lost $1.9 billion in the same period. That means the 3 airlines lost a combined $5.5 billion in 6 months. SIA\u2019s expenditure of $4.4 billion in just 2 months is just $1.1 billion short of that.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16894\" src=\"https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3-300x171.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3-1024x582.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3-768x436.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3-1170x665.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/sg.everydayonsales.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/5as1da1d5ad3-585x332.jpg 585w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>image <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/singaporeair\/photos\/bc.AbpBNn-7Cfja241q5UdAbCJAhQcjSJ-ujDi0qek93uNlPpYBbWeCcQJzv1WYBdxb0BOD00uSRikNKdSLN7vIF2pVtqaJhTIBUURpVEfXrLNYijpssh69HJcEXGgi7uaQFDZCDSUcUOhYPYAurFJQfvti\/10153113685008679\/?type=1&amp;opaqueCursor=Abo3PUZ_NiRzaHnybZmVRTFcu238f3twANn_1_zoZ-fymYWv8fuSyRC_tjXjBF9QBGaGkMFryOnKiRo-qAX7KUJxdTusrqYR8Ax9gif-epdTlpzV7PjqBhDpaKxHsK1p4eZR8rTx9TWwzmw4kRCrmwfZRu6wtF5clrwtRACcSMC1Yxq2hKCsQ2cI96mAoKp6zHYJXdZMx8G92oRijaHlTRRqkhfPcXBOixjoZJ4JneR7nWzTdabh1timPpE7hBL0qn01D057tDkXg2v2DRlalnDf2UtFqYCpNnhAcD3VwrAvaaNhry2s7QVbL52GNqBjq-WBCANHA-9_x4E6F1mevktLwSsrXhyeWDt8xmS9SYf719FjjxbRqolMd5AZMk3vWyB1mA2zNnainbAwxRJt18W9jesZuc_9FrmLRupEiMCmVcI7pYSKWF3CZe9m1pcOROpnUACF4XRiBv1ZxihFYOulQ9FUlzIiFcDZAbKB56HI15k1Ip3oMu24V4q-UbsFBFLFp57r_pCs8FDt2XfiBKWoMp8DF0B1ZyOa8evXSvtXNg&amp;theater\">source<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/singaporeair\/photos\/a.10151644964573679\/10158796607933679\/?type=3&amp;theater\">source<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/photo.php?fbid=10222653694228644&amp;set=a.10222653693348622&amp;type=3&amp;theater\">source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>SIA Spends $4.4.
