Certain of the information set forth in this report should be
considered "forward-looking information," which is subject to a number of
risks and uncertainties. The preparation of forward-looking information
requires the use of estimates of future revenues, expenses, activity levels
and economic and market conditions, many of which are outside the Company's
control. Specific factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those set forth in the forward-looking information include:
economic conditions, labor costs, financing costs, aviation fuel costs,
competitive pressures on product pricing-particularly from lower-cost
competitors, weather conditions, government legislation, consumer
perceptions of the Company's products, demand for air transportation in the
markets in which the Company operates, disruptions relating to labor
negotiations, other operational matters discussed herein and other risks
and uncertainties listed from time to time in the Company's reports to the
SEC. Other factors and assumptions not identified above are also involved
in the preparation of forward-looking information, and the failure of such
other factors and assumptions to be realized may also cause actual results
to differ materially from those discussed. The Company assumes no
obligation to update such estimates to reflect actual results, changes in
assumptions or in other factors affecting such estimates.
