Air France-KLM preparing to cut 5,000 jobs: report



    PARIS (Reuters) - Air France-KLM , which last month issued its third profit warning since July, could announce around 5,000 job cuts in the coming weeks, French daily Le Figaro said on Tuesday.

    Air France-KLM had no immediate comment.

    In December the Franco-Dutch airline trimmed its 2014 forecast for earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) by 200 million euros to 1.5-1.6 billion, citing higher-than-expected pilot strike costs and weak long-haul revenues.
