Air France-KLM has fully repaid the remaining 2.5 billion euros
($2.68 billion) from its initial EUR4 billion French state-backed
loan granted during the coronavirus crisis.
The Franco-Dutch carrier said Wednesday that it was able to do
so on the back of a solid cash position achieved at the end of
2022, as well as the EUR1 billion proceeds of the
sustainability-linked bond issued in January.
"This full repayment will contribute to smoothing the group's
debt profile, reduce financial costs and limit residual exposure to
floating rates," it said.
