Although I believe I have a reasonable basis for making these forward-looking statements, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking information. By its nature, forward-looking information involves numerous assumptions, inherent risks and uncertainties, both general and specific, which contribute to the possibility that the predictions, forecasts and other forward-looking statements will not occur. These factors include, but are not limited to:

assumptions in connection with the economic and financial conditions in the United States, Mexico, Canada, and globally;
risks inherent with airline operation;
effects of competition and product pricing pressures;
risks inherent with customer dependence;
various events which could disrupt operations, including natural events and ongoing relations with employees;
impact of changes to or non-compliance with FAA regulations;
impact of any liability claims in excess of insurance coverage;
impact of future outcome of certain tax exposures.

The above list of important factors affecting forward-looking information is not exhaustive. Additional factors may be noted elsewhere and reference should be made to the other risks discussed in other posts, websites, FAA documents, filings with the SEC, and/or other government agencies. I do not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, whether written or oral, that may be made from time to time by or on behalf of the myself, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, or to publicly update or revise the above list of factors affecting this information.



Our understaffing is really going to catch up near the end of the year... last Nov/Dec were horrible; we were canceling upwards of 10-15 flights a day some days. This fall will be much worse. We've already given up a lot of our allocated DL/NW flying to Mesaba because we simply couldn't staff it. DL wants to get rid of a DCI carrier... CP is the smallest, cheapest, and easiest to do away with.
