(Updates with Moody’s upgrade in third paragraph, comments from Pratt, Air France, Emirates CEOs starting in seventh.) By Andrea Rothman and Steve Rothwell June 7 (Bloomberg) -- The airline industry will post a $2.5 billion profit in 2010, reversing two years of losses, the International Air Transport Association said today, scrapping an estimate for a $2.8 billion deficit as the economy rebounds.

Indeed, the country had already predicted a post–World Cup hangover for ...
