Japan Airlines Corp. is still struggling to work out a corporate rehabilitation plan some three months after filing for bankruptcy protection.

The banks that the carrier is hoping to borrow from remain unconvinced that the current draft, which includes more cuts to routes and personnel, will ensure its survival.

JAL, which has until the end of June to come up with a viable rehabilitation plan, is now looking at withdrawing from 47 routes — 31 domestic and 16 international — sometime after October. It may also ax 16,452 jobs, or nearly one-third of its workforce, by the end of fiscal 2010.
