Tone of the day
What the score means. Each score rates how good or bad the news was for the company, from −10 (clearly bad) to +10 (clearly good). 0 is neutral, and anything beyond ±6 is strong and rare. It rates the coverage, not the share price.
Why it scored this way
Coverage was split between a run of new route announcements and several reports of passengers falling ill or behaving dangerously on flights. Job cuts at head office ahead of a takeover vote added a cautious note.
