British no-frills airline EasyJet said Thursday that its losses deepened in the first half of its financial year to end-March after the Middle East war sent jet fuel prices soaring and disrupted travel plans. Its headline loss after tax came in at o377 million ($506 million) for the period, a rise of 27 percent a year earlier.
