How Now AirAsia? Oil Prices At Highest This Year

Oil prices at highest for this year

• NEW YORK: A weakened dollar and evidence that OPEC has significantly slowed production sent oil prices soaring to new highs for the year Thursday.
  
  "I think we'll see higher oil prices for a while," said Michael Lynch, president of Strategic Energy & Economic Research.
  
  "There's an expectation that the market has bottomed out."
  
  Benchmark crude for April delivery surged $3.47, or 7 percent, to settle at $51.61 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
  
  Oil prices hit $52.25 earlier in the day, a price last seen on Dec. 1.
  
  Crude prices have increased 11.6 percent since OPEC ministers met in Vienna on Sunday.
  
  The group said it would not cut production again immediately, but there is growing consensus that the millions of barrels taken off the market already each day are starting to balance a supply and demand picture that has been skewed for months.
  
  With the April contract set to expire Friday, most of the trading had shifted to the contract for May delivery, where prices jumped $3.14 to settle at $52.04 a barrel....

Weakening US Dollar and rising oil.

I wonder what AirAsia is thinking right now?

Itching to hedge the rising oil prices now???

And the US Dollar weakening, what did AirAsia do the last time round?
