    Japan Airlines (JAL), which entered bankruptcy protection last month, has announced a massive increase in loses.

    The airline said it lost 177.9bn yen ($1.99bn, £1.3bn) in the last nine months of 2009 – up from a loss of 1.9bn yen a year earlier.

    JAL is continuing to operate flights while it undergoes major restructuring under court supervision.
