We are furnishing herewith data being presented by certain of our executive officers on September 18, 2003 to The Society of Airline Analysts.

The information presented contains forward-looking statements that are not limited to historical facts, but reflect our current beliefs, expectations or intentions regarding future events. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. For examples of such risks and uncertainties, please read the risk factors set forth in our 2002 10-K and our other securities filings, which identify important risks and uncertainties such as terrorist attacks, domestic and international economic conditions, the significant cost of aircraft fuel, labor costs, competition and industry conditions including the demand for air travel, airline pricing environment and industry capacity decisions, regulatory matters and the seasonal nature of the airline
business. In addition to the foregoing risks, there can be no assurance that we will be able to achieve the pre-tax benefits from the revenue-generating and cost-reducing initiatives discussed in the presentation, some of which will depend, among other matters, on customer acceptance and competitor actions.We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that may arise after the date of this report.
