                           GALILEO INTERNATIONAL, INC.
              NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The  accompanying   unaudited  interim  condensed   consolidated  financial
statements of Galileo  International,  Inc. (the  "Company")  have been prepared
pursuant to the rules of the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission for quarterly
reports  on  Form  10-Q  and do not  include  all of the  information  and  note
disclosures   required  by  generally  accepted   accounting   principles.   The
information  furnished  herein  includes all  adjustments,  consisting of normal
recurring adjustments, which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary for a
fair presentation of results for the interim periods presented.

     The  results of  operations  for the  quarter  ended March 31, 1999 are not
necessarily  indicative  of the  results  to be  expected  for the  year  ending
December 31, 1999.

     These financial  statements  should be read in conjunction with the audited
financial  statements and notes to the audited financial statements for the year
ended  December 31, 1998  included in the  Company's  Annual Report on Form 10-K
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 22, 1999.


NOTE 2 - BUSINESS ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS

     On November 19, 1998,  the Company  acquired S. D. Shepherd  Systems,  Inc.
("Shepherd Systems"), an airline information systems company, for $16.7 million.
The Company also acquired two national  distribution  companies  ("NDCs") during
1998. On June 1, 1998,  Galileo Canada  Distributions  Systems,  Inc.  ("Galileo
Canada") was purchased for $34.4 million and on January 1, 1998 Galileo Nordiska
AB  ("Nordiska)  was  purchased  for $2.1  million.  In  connection  with  these
acquisitions,  the Company also incurred  expenses of $0.8  million,  which have
been  accounted for as part of the purchase  prices.  The Company  accounted for
these  acquisitions  using the purchase method of accounting.  Accordingly,  the
costs of the acquisitions  were allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities
assumed based on their  respective  fair values.  Goodwill and other  intangible
assets related to the cost of the  acquisitions are being amortized over 6 to 25
years and are included in cost of operations expenses. The results of operations
and cash flows of the acquired  companies have been  consolidated  with those of
the  Company  from  the  date  of  each  acquisition.  In  connection  with  the
acquisition of Galileo Canada,  the Company incurred $34.4 million of debt under
a five-year term loan agreement.

     During the quarter  ended March 31,  1999,  the Company  acquired  minority
ownership  equity  positions  in  three  technology-related  companies  for $7.3
million.


                                       7

NOTE 3 - EARNINGS PER SHARE

     Basic  earnings per share for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 is
calculated  based on the weighted  average shares  outstanding for each quarter.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated as if the Company had additional common
stock  outstanding  from the  beginning of the year or the date of grant for all
dilutive stock  options,  net of assumed  repurchased  shares using the treasury
stock  method.  This resulted in an increase in the weighted  average  number of
shares outstanding for the quarters ended March 31, 1999 and 1998 of 800,000 and
263,435, respectively.


NOTE 4 - SPECIAL CHARGES

     The Company  recorded special charges of $26.4 million ($15.9 million after
tax)  during  the  quarter  ended  December  31,  1998  related  to a  strategic
realignment  of the Company's  operations in the United Kingdom and, to a lesser
degree,  other  realignments  within the  Company.  These  special  charges were
comprised  primarily  of  $15.0  million  in  severance  costs  related  to  the
termination of 399 employees, primarily in the development and marketing groups,
and $11.4  million of other  costs,  principally  related to the  closing of the
remaining Swindon, United Kingdom facilities. As of March 31, 1999, $1.2 million
of severance  related costs have been paid and charged against the liability and
23  employees  have  been  terminated.   The  Company  expects  the  realignment
activities to be substantially complete in 1999. In 1993, the Company,  formerly
Covia  Partnership,  combined with The Galileo Company Ltd. and consolidated its
two data  center  facilities  resulting  in the closure of the  Swindon,  United
Kingdom  data  center.  In  connection  therewith,  the  estimated  cost  of the
consolidation  was charged to expense.  At March 31, 1999 and December 31, 1998,
the estimated remaining liabilities for all of the above mentioned restructuring
activities were $35.5 million and $44.1 million,  respectively, and are included
in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

     The Company  recorded special charges of $20.1 million ($12.1 million after
tax) during the year ended December 31, 1997 related to the  integration of NDCs
acquired in 1997 into the  Company's  operations.  These  special  charges  were
comprised  primarily  of  $12.3  million  in  severance  costs  related  to  the
termination  of 202  employees  and $7.8  million  of other  integration  costs,
principally  related to the  closing of  duplicate  facilities.  As of March 31,
1999, $9.4 million of severance related costs have been paid and charged against
the liability and 121 employees have been  terminated.  The Company  expects the
integration  activities  to be complete in 1999.  At March 31, 1999 and December
31, 1998, the estimated  remaining  liabilities  related to the integration were
$2.4  million  and  $3.4  million,   respectively,   and  are  included  in  the
accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 5 - STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

     During the quarter ended March 31, 1999,  the Company  accounted for a $0.3
million  unrealized  holding  loss  on   available-for-sale   marketable  equity
securities in accordance  with Statement of Financial  Accounting  Standards No.
115,  "Accounting for Certain  Investments in Debt and Equity  Securities".  The
after tax  effect  of $0.2  million  is  included  as a  separate  component  of
Stockholders' Equity.


NOTE 6 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

     On May 5,  1999,  the  Company  filed a  registration  statement  with  the
Securities and Exchange Commission relating to a proposed underwritten secondary
offering of its common stock pursuant to its Registration  Rights Agreement with
its airline  stockholders.  The Company  filed the  registration  statement as a
result of a demand for registration made by one of its airline  stockholders,  a
subsidiary  of US Airways,  Inc.,  that has requested  the  registration  of all
7,000,400  shares of common  stock it  currently  owns.  Under the  Registration
Rights Agreement,  the other airline  stockholders have the right to participate
in the  registration  initiated by the subsidiary of US Airways,  subject to the
ability of the  managing  underwriters  of the  offering  to limit the number of
other stockholders' shares that may be included in the registration. The airline
stockholders  controlled by United Airlines, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines,  Alitalia
and TAP Air Portugal have requested the inclusion in the offering of 17,500,000,
10,639,200,  1,500,000  and 88,000  shares,  respectively,  of common stock they
currently own. The Company  anticipates  commencing the offering,  which will be
made only by means of a prospectus,  during the second quarter of this year. The
Company will not receive any proceeds from the offering.

     In  addition,  on April 29,  1999,  the Board of  Directors  of the Company
authorized an increase in the size of the  Company's  share  repurchase  program
from  $100.0  million to $500.0  million.  The  amount,  timing and price of any
repurchases of the Company's  common stock will depend on market  conditions and
other factors.

FIRST QUARTER 1999 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER 1998

     REVENUES.  Revenues increased $27.0 million, or 7.2%, to $404.0 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $377.0 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1998.  Our  electronic  global  distribution  services  revenues  grew $43.0
million,  or 12.6%,  primarily due to an increase in airline booking revenues of
11.9% over the quarter  ended March 31, 1998.  The  increase in airline  booking
revenues was  primarily due to a 5.3%  increase in airline  booking  volumes and
booking fee price  increases that went into effect in March 1999 and March 1998.
Total international  booking volumes increased 9.3% for the quarter,  while U.S.
booking  volumes  increased  0.2% over the same  period  last year.  This modest
growth in U.S.  bookings was due to a new fee  structure we  introduced in North
America  in March 1998  under  which we no longer  charge  airline  vendors  for
passive bookings that are not ticketed.  We report only those bookings for which
we receive a fee. Excluding passive airline bookings,  growth in active bookings
for the quarter was 2.0% in the United  States.  The  increase in  international
booking  volumes for the quarter was driven by strong growth in Europe,  Africa,
the  Middle  East,  and  Southeast  Asia.  Also  contributing  to the  growth in
electronic  global  distribution  revenues were increases in subscriber fees and
revenues from the sale of information products and services.

     The  growth  in  electronic  global  distribution   services  revenues  was
partially offset by a $16.0 million decline in information services revenues due
principally  to the impact of  providing


                                       11
<PAGE>

fewer  network  services to one of our airline  vendors.  This  revenue loss was
largely offset by a reduction in operating  expenses related to the provision of
these services.

     COST OF OPERATIONS.  Cost of operations expenses decreased $3.0 million, or
2.2%, to $132.1 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $135.1 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 1998. The decline in cost of operations expenses
was due primarily to a $13.8 million  decrease in voice  communication  charges,
due to the discontinuation of certain airline vendor network services. Partially
offsetting  this  decrease was $6.7  million in  additional  cost of  operations
expenses incurred during the first quarter of 1999 due to the Galileo Canada and
Shepherd  Systems  acquisitions in 1998. These  additional  operating  expenses,
principally wages,  maintenance and installation  expenses,  communication costs
and  depreciation  expense,  were largely  offset by lower  commissions as we no
longer pay  commissions  to Galileo Canada but instead incur the direct costs of
distributing  our  products  in this  market.  Additionally,  we now  record the
amortization of the excess of the cost of these acquisitions over the fair value
of net  assets  acquired  and also  record  amortization  of  other  intangibles
acquired.

     The  remaining  increase  in  cost of  operations  expenses  was  primarily
attributable  to higher  wages and  increased  maintenance  costs on  subscriber
equipment at agency locations.  Cost of operations expense growth was lower than
revenue growth due to management's  continued focus on operating  efficiency and
our continuing ability to take advantage of decreasing  technology costs on Data
Centre equipment and to negotiate  favorable  supplier  contracts for subscriber
equipment.

     COMMISSIONS,  SELLING AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Commissions, selling and
administrative expenses increased $15.4 million, or 11.4%, to $151.0 million for
the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from $135.6 million for the quarter ended March
31, 1998. NDC  commissions  and subscriber  incentive  payments  increased $14.8
million,  or 16.4%,  to $105.0 million for the quarter ended March 31, 1999 from
$90.2 million for the quarter  ended March 31, 1998.  The increase in electronic
global distribution services revenues resulted in increased commissions to NDCs,
which were  offset by the  elimination  of  commissions  to  Galileo  Canada as,
subsequent to this  acquisition,  we no longer pay commissions but instead incur
the direct  costs of operating in this market.  NDC  commissions  are  generally
based on a percentage of booking revenues and have,  therefore,  grown at a rate
consistent with the growth in booking revenues by country.  Incentive  payments,
which are  provided to  subscribers  in order to maintain  and expand our travel
agency customer base, increased significantly in this quarter principally due to
the  initiation  of new  contracts  with  multinational  and key  U.S.  regional
accounts  in late 1998 and the first  quarter of 1999,  as well as the impact of
payments  to  subscribers  previously  borne by Galileo  Canada.  The  remaining
increase in  commissions,  selling and  administrative  expenses  was  primarily
attributable  to the  accrual of  estimated  payments  required  under  services
agreements with the sellers of certain NDCs acquired in 1997 and 1998.

     OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE),  NET. Other income (expense), net includes interest
expense  net of interest  income,  foreign  exchange  gains or losses  and other
non-operating  items. Other income, net increased $11.6 million, to $9.0 million
in income for the quarter  ended March 31, 1999 from $2.6 million in expense for
the quarter  ended March 31, 1998.  This  increase was


                                       12
<PAGE>

primarily the result of a $9.4 million gain  recognized  from the sale of 12% of
the  shares  we owned in  Equant,  N.V.,  a  telecommunications  company.  Lower
interest  expense  arising  from lower  debt  levels in 1999  accounted  for the
remainder  of the  increase  in other  income  (expense),  net  during the first
quarter of 1999.

     INCOME TAXES.  Income taxes  increased  $10.4 million,  or 25.2%,  to $51.8
million for the quarter  ended March 31, 1999 from $41.4 million for the quarter
ended March 31, 1998.  The increase was a result of higher income before  income
taxes  for the  quarter ended 1999 compared to 1998.  Our effective tax rate was
approximately 40% in both periods.  

     NET INCOME. Net income increased $15.7 million,  or 25.2%, to $78.0 million
for the quarter  ended March 31, 1999,  from $62.3 million for the quarter ended
March 31, 1998.  Net income as a percentage of revenues  increased to 19.3% from
16.5% over the same period.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     Cash and cash equivalents totaled $43.7 million and working capital totaled
$51.5 million at March 31, 1999. At December 31, 1998, cash and cash equivalents
totaled $9.8 million and working capital totaled $11.7 million.  Due principally
to strong  operating  results  and  proceeds  from the sale of shares in Equant,
N.V.,  cash and cash  equivalents  increased  by $33.9  million  despite the net
repayment of $35.1  million of  indebtedness  under credit  agreements  and $7.9
million in dividends we paid to our stockholders.

     Cash flow used in investing activities  principally relates to purchases of
mainframe  data  processing  and network  equipment  and  purchases  of computer
equipment  provided  to our travel  agency  subscribers.  Capital  expenditures,
excluding  the  capitalization  of  internally  developed  software,  were $12.9
million for the quarter  ended March 31, 1999  compared to $19.1 million for the
quarter  ended March 31,  1998.  In  addition,  we used $7.3  million to acquire
minority ownership equity positions in three technology-related companies during
the quarter ended March 31, 1999. Proceeds from sale of assets were $9.5 million
for the quarter ended March 31, 1999  primarily from the sale of shares we owned
in Equant, N.V.

     Cash flow used in financing  activities  includes net  repayments  of $35.1
million  under  credit  agreements  and $7.9 million in dividends we paid to our
stockholders.  We paid a $0.075 per share cash  dividend on February 19, 1999 to
stockholders  of record as of February 5, 1999.  On April 1, 1999, we paid $25.5
million to terminate two equipment  leases related to Swindon data center assets
pursuant to early termination  provisions allowed within the leases. As of March
31, 1999,  there was no debt outstanding  under our revolving credit  facilities
and we had $600.0 million available under these facilities.

     We expect that future cash  requirements  will  principally  be for capital
expenditures,   repayments   of   indebtedness,   strategic   acquisitions   and
investments,  and share repurchases. We believe that cash generated by operating
activities will be sufficient to fund our future cash


                                       13
<PAGE>

requirements,  except  that  significant  acquisitions,   investments  or  share
repurchases may require additional  borrowings or other financing  alternatives.
(1)

     In  addition  to  reinvesting  a  substantial  portion of  earnings  in our
business,  we  currently  intend  to  pay  regular  quarterly  dividends  and to
repurchase additional shares of our common stock. On April 23, 1999, we declared
a cash dividend of $.09 per share to be paid on May 21, 1999 to  stockholders of
record as of May 7, 1999. The  declaration and payment of future  dividends,  as
well as the amount thereof,  and the amount of future  repurchases of our common
stock are subject to the  discretion  of our Board of Directors  and will depend
upon our results of operations,  financial condition, cash requirements,  future
prospects and other factors deemed relevant by our Board of Directors. There can
be no assurance that we will continue to declare and pay dividends or repurchase
shares of our common stock in the future. (1)


EFFECT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

     We will  implement  the  provisions  of Statement  of Financial  Accounting
Standards  No.  133,   "Accounting   for  Derivative   Instruments  and  Hedging
Activities", which is required to be adopted for financial statements issued for
the fiscal year  ending  December  31,  2000.  Statement  133  standardizes  the
accounting for derivative instruments,  including certain derivative instruments
embedded in other  contracts,  by requiring that an entity recognize those items
as assets or liabilities in the statement of financial position and measure them
at fair value.  Management believes that adoption of Statement 133 will not have
a material impact on our financial statements.


YEAR 2000 (1)

     The Year 2000 issue is a result of computer  programs  being  written using
two digits rather than four to define the  applicable  year. Any of our computer
programs or systems or those of vendors and suppliers  that have  date-sensitive
software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than 2000.

     Beginning in September  1995,  we  implemented  a program  designed to help
ensure that all hardware  and software  used in  connection  with our  business,
including our software  products,  will manage and manipulate data involving the
transition of dates from 1999 to 2000 without functional or data abnormality and
without producing inaccurate results related to such dates. An internal analysis
of our hardware  and  software  has led us to conclude  that the majority of our
systems have been  engineered  to be Year 2000  compliant  and should  provide a
seamless  transition to the Year 2000. In addition,  we have  consulted  outside
experts,  including attorneys and independent auditors,  regarding our Year 2000
plans.

     We  electronically  exchange  information  with the computer systems of our
travel vendor customers and suppliers,  including air, car, hotel,  cruise, rail
and other vendors.  We use standardized  travel industry  interchange formats to
electronically  exchange  information  with many of these vendor  customers  and
suppliers.  Many of these  formats did not require  modification  in order to be
Year 2000 compliant.  Where required,  modifications  to these formats have been
completed.  Our  GlobalFares(TM)  system began  successfully  processing airline
fares with Year 2000 dates in July 1998.  In  addition,  the  investigation  and
assessment of our network  systems is complete and  remediation for such systems
is in progress and on-track for completion  during the third quarter of 1999. We
completed  remediation planning for most of our travel agency-based software and
began  distribution  of Year 2000  upgrades  for  operating  systems and package
installation  systems used in connection with our travel  agency-based  software
during  the third  quarter  of 1998.  The Year 2000  remediation  of most of our
travel  agency-based  software  addresses  aesthetic  modifications  and  is not
essential  for  the  reservation  booking  and  ticketing  capability  of  these
products.   Remediation   planning  for   country-specific   software  solutions
facilitating travel agency access to certain third party vendors is on-going. We
continue to develop,  distribute and install,  where  necessary,  upgrades to PC
hardware and software either on a normal maintenance cycle where it exists, or a
separate implementation plan where it does not exist.

     Remediation  activities  related to our mainframe  computer systems,  which
include   our  Galileo(R)  and  Apollo(R)  computer  reservation  systems,  were
completed  on schedule in 1998.  Our  Galileo  and Apollo  systems  successfully
processed  the first Year 2000 airline  reservation  bookings on January 3, 1999
and February 4, 1999,  respectively,  with  airlines  which support Year 2000 in
their systems.  Non-mainframe  activities are on-track for completion before the
third quarter of 1999.

     Embedded  systems are not an integral  component in our primary business or
operations.  Nevertheless,  we have  identified  and  validated as compliant or,
where necessary,  are in the process of remediating  embedded systems in certain
of our facilities and environmental  systems.  We do not anticipate any material
adverse impact to our business or operations related to Year 2000 performance of
embedded systems.

     As an electronic global  distribution  services  company,  our products are
dependent  upon data provided by our air, car,  hotel and tour vendor  customers
and  other  suppliers  of  data.  We are  also  dependent  on  critical  service
providers, such as telecommunications firms, for worldwide product distribution.
We are continuing to assess Year 2000 issues arising from our relationships with
third  parties,  including  our  NDCs,  to  determine  the  extent  to which our
interface  systems are vulnerable to failure by these parties to remediate their
own Year  2000-sensitive  systems. We have requested Year 2000 compliance status
information from all of our vendor  customers,  critical other suppliers of data
and our NDCs. We continue to work closely with our NDCs to provide assistance to
meet their Year 2000 challenges. While many of these third parties have reported
that they are not finding  significant  problems in their own systems, we cannot
guarantee  that the  systems  of these  third  parties  will be made  Year  2000
compliant in a


                                       15
<PAGE>

timely  manner.  Vendor  customers,  service  providers  and  NDCs  continue  to
participate with us in Year 2000 testing.

     We completed  contingency  plans for our  mainframe  systems on schedule in
1998 and anticipate that the contingency plans for non-mainframe systems will be
complete  prior to the third  quarter of 1999.  We will  continue  to review and
revise  contingency plans to address possible Year 2000 failures of our internal
systems and business  processes or those of vendor  customers,  critical service
suppliers,  other  suppliers  of data  and our  NDCs,  on whose  systems  we are
dependent.  Our  contingency  plans identify the  interruption of local services
provided by third  parties,  such as  telecommunication  firms and power  supply
companies,  as the events which would be most likely to occur. However, should a
problem occur,  it would generally be localized and we do not anticipate that it
would have a material  adverse  effect on our business,  financial  condition or
results of operations. Our contingency planning involved risk assessment for all
of our business  functions and operating  and staff  departments,  including the
identification of assumptions and  dependencies.  The contingency plans for each
business  function and  operating  and staff  department  provide for  proactive
preparation  for Year 2000  challenges,  checklists of activities to perform for
validation  of possible  failures,  and reactive  planning to address any actual
Year 2000 failures. The contingency plans also address on-site staff coverage on
January 1, 2000 for all operating  and staff  departments,  and include  support
personnel from our critical hardware and software suppliers.

     The interruption of services provided by critical service  providers,  such
as  telecommunications  firms and power supply companies,  due to their own Year
2000  difficulties,  could have a material  adverse  effect on our  business and
operations.  With  respect to bookings  for travel  after  January 1, 2000,  any
failure on our part or on the part of our vendor  customers,  other suppliers of
data or NDCs to ensure that systems are Year 2000 compliant,  regardless of when
such  bookings  occur,  could have a material  adverse  effect on our  business,
financial condition or results of operations.

     Testing is a critical component in our Year 2000 preparedness  program. Our
system  for Year 2000  hardware  and  software  validation  -- called  the "Time
Machine" -- is essentially a copy of our production  environment  which performs
date-sensitive  tests and  supports  connectivity  to the  systems of our vendor
customers,  suppliers  of data,  NDCs and certain  other third  parties  without
interrupting   existing  systems  and  without  risk  of  contaminating   "live"
production data.

     We incurred  $1.7 million of expenses in the quarter  ended March 31, 1999,
$8.0  million of expenses in 1998,  and $4.4 million of expenses in 1997 related
to Year 2000 remediation.  We expect future  expenditures to total approximately
$7.3  million.  All of these costs are  expected  to be  expensed  as  incurred.
Further, we expect to incur additional costs after 1999 to remediate and replace
less critical  software  applications and embedded systems;  however,  we do not
expect  these  expenses  to have a  material  adverse  effect  on our  business,
financial condition or results of operations.

     The  cost of our  Year  2000  project  and the  dates  on  which we plan to
complete our Year 2000  modifications  are based on management's best estimates,
which were  derived  utilizing  numerous  assumptions  of future  events,  third
parties' Year 2000 readiness and other factors.

     Based on our current  schedule for completion of our Year 2000 project,  we
believe  that our  planning is adequate  to secure  Year 2000  readiness  of our
critical  systems.  Nevertheless,  achieving  Year 2000  readiness is subject to
various risks and  uncertainties,  many of which are described above. We are not
able to predict all of the factors  that could  cause  actual  results to differ
materially from our current expectations about our Year 2000 readiness.  At this
time,  we believe the major risks  associated  with Year 2000  processing  are a
system  failure or  miscalculation  causing an inability to process  bookings or
engage in other normal  business  activities.  Our failure,  or failure of third
parties with whom we have significant  business  relationships,  to achieve Year
2000  readiness with respect to critical  systems could have a material  adverse
effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.


NEW EUROPEAN CURRENCY

     In January 1999, certain European countries  introduced a new currency unit
called the "euro". We planned,  developed and successfully implemented a project
to ensure  that  hardware  and  software  systems  operated  or  licensed in our
business,  including systems provided to our travel agency subscriber and travel

operations. (1)
