All Nippon Airways Co. said Thursday that it now expects annual group revenue from international passenger flights to fall 42 billion yen below the amount forecast in its original fiscal 2003 business plan.

In April, the firm estimated a 26 billion yen shortfall due to the effects of the Iraq war and the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome.

But the airline now believes the impact of SARS and the war during the April-June term was more severe.
