MEH

growing pains.


I'll be worried if this still holds true in 1Q 2011.

2 of the biggest factors IMO. The results are no reason to claim the sky is falling. Give it a few more quarters, and we'll see if this continues.

BB stated last year that he expected losses in Q4 2009, Q1 2010, and Q2 2010, with a return to profit in Q3 2010. So far, Q4 ended up slightly better than expected, and Q1 is coming in as expected. As others said above, give it a realistic amount of time before claiming failure. Acquisitions are not cheap, and all related expenses have an impact over an extended period of time.

The debt vs overall (and even unrestricted) cash combined with revenue seems mounting. Depending on how the debt is structured, it seems that they may need get the revenue problems on the branded side under control quickly.

Flights on the branded side are packed to the gills. I guess it depends on what they are selling the tickets for.

Yup. Domestic loads are busting at the seams for everyone, but it's the ticket price that counts.

I think I saw a press release that said the LF for the branded side was in the mid 70s (76 or 77% comes to mind). Usually there is more info during the conference call, so I'm sure a better idea of the exact loads will cone from it.

RAH reported a LF of 75.7% for branded operations.

Excluding one time charges, the branded side lost over $40 million and from what I figure the CASM with fuel (no special items) is around 10-11 cents.

I don't think the sky is falling but Q3 will definitely be the telling quarter.

How are the SLI talks going?
