MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Northwest Airlines Corp.'s quarterly loss ballooned tenfold to $475 million because of bankruptcy costs and more expensive fuel, the airline said Thursday.
Northwest filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection on Sept. 14.
The nation's fourth-largest carrier said it lost $5.45 per share during the quarter that ended Sept. 30, up from $46 million, or 54 cents per share during the same period last year.
