Aircraft fuel and related taxes increased
due to a 50.5% increase in jet fuel prices. Our average jet
fuel price per gallon including related taxes increased to $3.27 in 2008
from $2.18 in 2007. Our average jet fuel price includes losses
related to our fuel hedging program of $0.10 per gallon in 2008, compared
to gains of $0.02 per gallon in 2007.
|
·
|
Wages, salaries and related costs decreased
primarily due to a $172 million decrease in profit sharing
expenses. Although the average number of full time equivalent
employees decreased approximately 1% in 2008, the impact on expenses was
offset by wage increases.
|
·
|
Regional capacity purchase, net includes
expenses related to our capacity purchase agreements. Our most
significant capacity purchase agreement is with
ExpressJet. Regional capacity purchase, net includes all fuel
expense on flights operated for us under capacity purchase agreements and
is net of our rental income on aircraft leased to ExpressJet and flown for
us in 2007 and the first six months of 2008. Under the Amended
ExpressJet CPA, ExpressJet no longer pays sublease rent for aircraft
operated on our behalf. The net amounts consisted of the
following for the year ended December 31 (in millions, except percentage
changes):

The
net expense was higher in 2008 than in 2007 primarily due to higher fuel
expense. Fuel expense increased 49.1% over the 2007 expense as
a result of higher fuel prices. Fuel expense includes a
proportionate share of gains and losses related to our fuel hedging
program. Netting together capacity purchase expenses and
aircraft sublease income in 2008 for comparison to 2007, the net expense
did not change significantly. Sublease income of $76 million
and $79 million on aircraft operated by ExpressJet outside the scope of
our capacity purchase agreement for 2008 and 2007, respectively, is
recorded as other revenue.
|
||
·
|
Aircraft rentals decreased due to the
retirement of several Boeing 737 aircraft. New aircraft
delivered in 2008 were all purchased, with the related expense being
reflected in depreciation and amortization.
|
|
·
|
Landing fees and other rentals increased
primarily due to a higher number of international flights and rate
increases.
|
|
·
|
Distribution costs, which consist primarily
of reservation booking fees, credit card fees and commissions, increased
due to a 5.7% increase in passenger revenue.
|
|
·
|
Other operating expenses increased
primarily due to a greater number of international flights, which resulted
in increased air navigation fees and ground handling, security and related
expenses, changes in how certain costs are handled under the new Amended
ExpressJet CPA and higher OnePass reward expenses.
|
|
·
|
Special charges in 2008 included $52
million of non-cash settlement charges related to lump sum distributions
from our pilot-only defined benefit pension plan to pilots who retired,
$40 million of aircraft-related charges, net of gains on sales of
aircraft, $34 million in severance and $55 million of route impairment and
other charges.
Aircraft-related
charges, net of gains on sales of aircraft, of $40 million include
non-cash impairments on owned Boeing 737-300 and 737-500 aircraft and
related assets. Following the decision in June 2008 to retire
all of our Boeing 737-300 aircraft and a significant portion of our Boeing
737-500 fleet by the end of 2009, we evaluated the ongoing value of the
assets associated with these fleets. Fleet assets include owned
aircraft, improvements on leased aircraft, spare parts, spare engines and
simulators. Based on our evaluation, we determined that the
carrying amounts of these fleets were impaired and wrote them down to
their estimated fair value. We estimated the fair values based
on current market quotes and our expected proceeds from the sale of the
assets. Aircraft-related charges, net of gains on sales of
aircraft in 2008 also includes charges for future lease costs on
permanently grounded 737-300 aircraft and gains on the sale of ten Boeing
737-500 aircraft.
In
conjunction with the capacity reductions, we incurred $34 million for
severance and continuing medical coverage for employees accepting early
retirement packages or company-offered leaves of absence during
2008. Approximately 3,000 positions were eliminated as a result
of the capacity reductions, the majority of which were implemented in
September 2008.
Route
impairment and other special charges in 2008 of $55 million includes an
$18 million non-cash charge to write off an intangible route asset as a
result of our decision to move all of our flights between New York Liberty
and London from London Gatwick Airport to London Heathrow Airport and $37
million of charges related to contract settlements with regional carriers
and unused facilities.
Special
charges in 2007 consisted of a $31 million non-cash settlement charge
related to lump sum distributions from our pilot-only defined benefit
pension plan to pilots who retired and $22 million of gains on the sale of
three Boeing 737-500 aircraft. Additionally, we recorded a $4
million increase to the liability for the long-term disability plan for
our pilots related to a change in the mandatory retirement age for our
pilots from age 60 to 65. This change was signed into law on
December 13,
2007.
|
·
|
Net interest expense increased $71 million
primarily due to lower interest income resulting from lower interest rates
on investments and lower cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments
balances.
|
·
|
Gain on sale of investments of $78 million
in 2008 related to the sale of our remaining interests in Copa. Gain on
sale of investments in 2007 consisted of $30 million related to the sale
of our interest in ARINC, Inc. ("ARINC") and $7 million related to the
sale of our remaining interest in Holdings.
|
·
|
Other nonoperating income (expense)
included $125 million expense related to changes in the fair value of fuel
derivative contracts with Lehman Brothers that were deemed ineffective
after Lehman Brothers declared bankruptcy in
2008. Additionally, we recorded a loss of $34 million in 2008
to reflect the decline in the value of our student loan-related auction
rate securities, net of the value of a put right we received permitting us
to sell certain of the auction rate securities. This account
also includes other fuel hedge ineffectiveness gains of $26 million and
$14 million in 2008 and 2007, respectively, caused by our non-jet fuel
derivatives experiencing a higher relative change in value than the jet
fuel being hedged.
Other
variances in other nonoperating income (expense) include $37 million of
foreign currency exchange losses in 2008 compared to gains of $2 million
in 2007, a $16 million mark-to-market loss on investments supporting
company owned life insurance policies in 2008 compared to a $3 million
gain in 2007 and $6 million less equity in earnings of other companies in
2008 compared to 2007 resulting from our decreased ownership of Copa and
Holdings.

Aircraft and related taxes increased due to
higher fuel prices and a 5.6% increase in mainline
capacity. Our average jet fuel price per gallon including
related taxes increased to $2.18 in 2007 from $2.06 in
2006. Our average jet fuel price includes gains related to our
fuel hedging program of $0.02 per gallon in 2007, compared to losses
of $0.03 per gallon in 2006.
|
·
|
Wages, salaries and related costs increased
primarily due to a 3.7% increase in the average number of full time
equivalent employees necessary to support our growth and an increase of
$72 million for profit sharing and on-time performance incentive
expenses.
|
·
|
Regional capacity purchase, net includes
expenses related to our capacity purchase agreements. Our most
significant capacity purchase agreement is with
ExpressJet. Regional capacity purchase, net includes all fuel
expense on flights operated for us under capacity purchase agreements and
is net of our rental income on aircraft leased to ExpressJet and flown for
us. The net amounts consisted of the following for the year
ended December 31 (in millions, except percentage
changes):

The
net expense was higher in 2007 than in 2006 due to higher fuel
expense. Fuel expense increased 2.6% over the 2006 expense as a
result of higher fuel prices. Sublease income was lower in 2007
as 67 aircraft were removed from our service. Sublease income
of $79 million on aircraft operated by ExpressJet outside the scope of the
ExpressJet CPA is recorded as other revenue. These factors were
offset by a decrease in regional capacity, which was attributable to
reduced flying by ExpressJet, partially offset by new capacity provided by
Chautauqua.
|
|
·
|
Maintenance, materials and repairs
increased primarily due to higher engine maintenance costs, driven by
increased flight activity and the timing of engine
overhauls. In addition, contractual engine repair rates
escalated in accordance with their contracts due to the aging of our
fleet. The costs of component repairs and expendable materials
increased primarily due to the aging of our fleet and the timing of
overhauls for more costly components, including landing
gears.
|
·
|
Other operating expenses increased
primarily due to a greater number of international flights, which resulted
in increased air navigation fees and ground handling, security and related
expenses.
|
·
|
Special charges in 2007 consisted of a $31
million non-cash settlement charge related to lump sum distributions from
our pilot-only defined benefit pension plan to pilots who retired and $22
million of gains on the sale of three Boeing 737-500
aircraft. Additionally, we recorded a $4 million increase to
the liability for the long-term disability plan for our pilots related to
a change in the mandatory retirement age for our pilots from age 60 to
65. This change was signed into law on December 13,
2007. Special charges in 2006 consisted of $59 million of
similar non-cash pension settlement charges, an $18 million credit
attributable to a reduction of our accruals for future lease payments and
return conditions related to permanently grounded MD-80
aircraft following negotiated settlements with aircraft lessors and a $14
million credit related to our officers' voluntary surrender of stock price
based restricted stock unit ("RSU")
awards.
|
·
|
Net interest expense decreased $18 million
primarily as a result of increased interest income on our higher cash
balances.
|
·
|
Other nonoperating income (expense)
includes hedge ineffectiveness gains related to our fuel hedges that
totaled $14 million during
2007. This ineffectiveness arose because our heating oil
collars experienced a higher increase in value than the jet fuel being
hedged. Hedge ineffectiveness was not material in
2006. Other nonoperating income (expense) also includes our
equity in the earnings of Copa and Holdings and income related to our tax
sharing agreement with Holdings in 2006. These amounts
were $23
million lower in 2007 as compared to 2006 as a result of our reduced
ownership interests in Holdings and Copa and a decrease in income
recognized from our tax sharing agreement with
Holdings.
|
·
|
Gain on sale of investments in 2007
consisted of $30 million related to the sale of our interest in ARINC,
Inc. and $7 million related to the sale of all of our remaining interest
in Holdings. In 2006, we recognized a gain of $92 million
related to the sale of 7.5 million shares of Copa's Class A common
stock.

(a)
|
Principles of Consolidation. Our
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Continental and
all wholly-owned subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and
transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
|
(b)
|
Use of Estimates. The
preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the
financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
|
(c)
|
Cash and Cash Equivalents. We
classify short-term, highly liquid investments which are readily
convertible into cash and have a maturity of three months or less when
purchased as cash and cash equivalents. Restricted cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments is primarily collateral for
estimated future workers' compensation claims, credit card processing
contracts, letters of credit and performance bonds.
|
(d)
|
Short-term
Investments. Short-term investments primarily include
certificates of deposit placed through an account registry service
("CDARS"), auction rate securities and automobile loan-related asset
backed securities. The CDARS we hold have original maturities
of 91 days and are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation. Short-term investments are classified as
available-for-sale or trading securities and are stated at fair
value. Trading securities consist of student loan-related
auction rate securities for which we have received an option to put the
securities back to the broker, discussed in Note 6. Realized
gains and losses on specific investments are reflected in non-operating
income (expense) in our consolidated statements of
operations. Unrealized gains and losses on available-for-sale
and trading securities are reflected as a component of accumulated other
comprehensive loss and non-operating income (expense) in our consolidated
statements of operations, respectively.
|
(e)
|
Spare Parts and
Supplies. Inventories, expendable parts and supplies
related to flight equipment are carried at average acquisition cost and
are expensed when consumed in operations. An allowance for
obsolescence is provided over the remaining lease term or the estimated
useful life of the related aircraft, as well as to reduce the carrying
cost of spare parts currently identified as excess to the lower of
amortized cost or net realizable value. We recorded additions
to this allowance for expense of $26 million, $11 million and $7 million
in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. The allowance was reduced by $1 million and $32
million in the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively,
related primarily to the consignment of surplus spare parts and
supplies. Spare parts and supplies are assumed to have an
estimated residual value of 10% of original cost. These
allowances are based on management estimates, which are subject to
change.
|
(f)
|
Property and Equipment. Property
and equipment are recorded at cost and are depreciated to estimated
residual values over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line
method. Jet aircraft and rotable spare parts are assumed to
have residual values of 15% and 10%, respectively, of original cost; other
categories of property and equipment are assumed to have no residual
value. The estimated useful lives of our property and equipment
are as
follows:
|

|
|
The
carrying amount of computer software was $80 million and $77 million at
December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Depreciation expense
related to computer software was $27 million, $28 million and $28 million
in the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively.
|
|

|
Routes and Airport Operating
Rights. Routes represent the right to fly between cities
in different countries. Routes are indefinite-lived intangible
assets and are not amortized. Routes totaled $466 million and
$484 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. We
perform a test for impairment of our routes in the fourth quarter of each
year. In 2008, we recorded an $18 million non-cash charge to
write off an intangible route asset as a result of our decision to move
all of our flights between Newark Liberty International Airport ("New York
Liberty") and London from London Gatwick Airport to London Heathrow
Airport.
|
Airport
operating rights represent gate space and slots (the right to schedule an
arrival or departure within designated hours at a particular
airport). Airport operating rights at domestic airports totaled
$91 million and $106 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. These assets are amortized over the stated term
of the related lease (for gates) or 20 years (for
slots). Amortization expense related to domestic airport
operating rights was $14 million for each of the years ended December 31,
2008, 2007 and 2006. We expect annual amortization expense
related to domestic airport operating rights to be approximately $14
million in each of the next four years and $9 million in
2013.
|
|
Our
international slots are indefinite-lived intangible assets and are not
amortized. International slots totaled $247 million and $116
million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
|
|
(h)
|
Measurement of Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets. We record impairment losses on long-lived
assets, consisting principally of property and equipment and domestic
airport operating rights, when events or changes in circumstances
indicate, in management's judgment, that the assets might be impaired and
the undiscounted cash flows estimated to be generated by those assets are
less than the carrying amount of those assets. The net carrying
value of assets not recoverable is reduced to fair value if lower than the
carrying value. In determining the fair market value of the
assets, we consider market trends, recent transactions involving sales of
similar assets and, if necessary, estimates of future discounted cash
flows. See Note 13 for a discussion of aircraft impairment
charges during 2008.
|
(i)
|
Revenue/Air Traffic
Liability. Passenger revenue is recognized either when
transportation is provided or when the ticket expires unused, rather than
when a ticket is sold. Revenue is recognized for unused
non-refundable tickets on the date of the intended flight if the passenger
did not notify us of his or her intention to change the
itinerary.
|
We
are required to charge certain taxes and fees on our passenger
tickets. These taxes and fees include U.S. federal
transportation taxes, federal security charges, airport passenger facility
charges and foreign arrival and departure taxes. These taxes
and fees are legal assessments on the customer. As we have a
legal obligation to act as a collection agent with respect to these taxes
and fees, we do not include such amounts in passenger
revenue. We record a liability when the amounts are
collected and relieve the liability when payments are made to the
applicable government agency.
|
|
Under
our capacity purchase agreements with regional carriers, we purchase all
of the capacity related to aircraft covered by the contracts and are
responsible for selling all of the related seat inventory. We
record the related passenger revenue and related expenses, with payments
under the capacity purchase agreements reflected as a separate operating
expense in our consolidated statement of operations.
|
|
The
amount of passenger ticket sales not yet recognized as revenue is included
in our consolidated balance sheets as air traffic and frequent flyer
liability. We perform periodic evaluations of the estimated
liability for passenger ticket sales and any adjustments, which can be
significant, are included in results of operations for the periods in
which the evaluations are completed. These adjustments relate primarily to
differences between our statistical estimation of certain revenue
transactions and the related sales price, as well as refunds, exchanges,
interline transactions and other items for which final settlement occurs
in periods subsequent to the sale of the related tickets at amounts other
than the original sales price.
|
|
Revenue
from the shipment of cargo and mail is recognized when transportation is
provided. Other revenue includes revenue from the sale of
frequent flyer miles (see (k) below), ticket change fees, baggage fees,
charter services, sublease income on aircraft leased to Holdings but not
operated for us and other incidental services. Ticket change
fees relate to non-refundable tickets, but are considered a separate
transaction from the air transportation because they represent a charge
for our additional service to modify a previous order. Ticket
change fees are recognized as other revenue in our consolidated statement
of operations at the time the fees are assessed.

Frequent Flyer Program. For
those OnePass accounts that have sufficient mileage credits to claim the
lowest level of free travel, we record a liability for either the
estimated incremental cost of providing travel awards that are expected to
be redeemed with us or the contractual rate of expected redemption on
alliance carriers. Incremental cost includes the cost of fuel,
meals, insurance and miscellaneous supplies, but does not include any
costs for aircraft ownership, maintenance, labor or overhead
allocation. Beginning in 2008, we also include in our
determination of incremental cost the impact of fees charged to certain
passengers redeeming frequent flyer rewards for travel, which partially
offsets the incremental cost associated with providing flights for
frequent flyer travel rewards. We recorded an adjustment of $27
million ($0.24 per basic and diluted share) to increase passenger revenue
and reduce our frequent flyer liability during 2008 for the impact of
these fees, which had not been significant in prior periods, after we
increased them during 2008. A change to these cost estimates,
the actual redemption activity, the amount of redemptions on alliance
carriers or the minimum award level could have a significant impact on our
liability in the period of change as well as future years. The
liability is adjusted periodically based on awards earned, awards
redeemed, changes in the incremental costs and changes in the OnePass
program, and is included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
as air traffic and frequent flyer liability. Changes in the
liability are recognized as passenger revenue in the period of
change.
|
We
also sell mileage credits in our frequent flyer program to participating
entities, such as credit/debit card companies, alliance carriers, hotels,
car rental agencies, utilities and various shopping and gift
merchants. Revenue from the sale of mileage credits is deferred
and recognized as passenger revenue over the period when transportation is
expected to be provided, based on estimates of its fair
value. Amounts received in excess of the expected
transportation's fair value are recognized in income currently and
classified as other revenue. A change to the time period over
which the mileage credits are used (currently six to 28 months), the
actual redemption activity or our estimate of the amount or fair value of
expected transportation could have a significant impact on our revenue in
the year of change as well as future years.
|
|
At
December 31, 2008, we estimated that approximately 2.4 million free travel
awards outstanding were expected to be redeemed for free travel on
Continental, Continental Express, Continental Connection, CMI or alliance
airlines. Our total liability for future OnePass award
redemptions for free travel and unrecognized revenue from sales of OnePass
miles to other companies was approximately $324 million at December 31,
2008. This liability is recognized as a component of air
traffic and frequent flyer liability in our consolidated balance
sheets.
|
|
(k)
|
Maintenance and Repair
Costs. Maintenance and repair costs for owned and leased
flight equipment, including the overhaul of aircraft components, are
charged to operating expense as incurred. Maintenance and
repair costs also include engine overhaul costs covered by cost-per-hour
agreements, a majority of which are expensed on the basis of hours
flown.
|
(l)
|
Advertising Costs. We expense
the costs of advertising as incurred. Advertising expense was
$93 million, $106 million and $95 million for the years ended December 31,
2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
|
(m)
|
Regional Capacity Purchase,
Net. Payments made to regional carriers under capacity
purchase agreements are reported in regional capacity purchase, net, in
our consolidated statement of operations. Regional capacity
purchase, net, includes all fuel expense on flights operated for us under
capacity purchase agreements and is net of our rental income on aircraft
leased to ExpressJet and flown for us through June 30,
2008. Beginning July 1, 2008, ExpressJet no longer pays us
sublease rent for aircraft operated on our behalf.
|
(n)
|
Foreign Currency Gains
(Losses). Foreign currency gains (losses) are recorded
as part of other, net non-operating income (expense) in our consolidated
statements of operations. Foreign currency gains (losses) were
$(37) million, $2 million and $3 million for the years ended December 31,
2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Market
approach - Uses prices and other relevant information generated by market
transactions involving identical or comparable assets or

(B)
|
Income
approach - Uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single
present amount based on current market expectations about those future
amounts, including present value techniques, option-pricing models and
excess earnings method

(C)
|
Cost
approach - Based on the amount that currently would be required to replace

Debt. The fair value of our debt
with a carrying value of $5.0 billion at December 31, 2008 and $3.8
billion at December 31, 2007 was approximately $4.2 billion and $3.8
billion, respectively. These estimates were based on either the
discounted amount of future cash flows using our current incremental rate
of borrowing for similar liabilities or market
prices. Estimating the fair value of the remaining debt at
December 31, 2008 and 2007, with a carrying value of $683 million and $929
million, respectively, was not practicable due to the large number of
remaining debt instruments with relatively small carrying
amounts.

|
Investment in COLI Products. In
connection with certain of our supplemental retirement plans, we have
company owned life insurance policies on certain of our
employees. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the carrying value
of the underlying investments was $26 million and $45 million,
respectively, which approximated fair value.
