earnings, earnings per share, fully distributed earnings per
share and price to earnings ratios include the airline pricing
environment; industry capacity decisions; the success of the
Company's customer satisfaction initiative; the success of the
Company's cost control efforts; the cost of crude oil and jet
fuel; the impact and timing of a collective bargaining
agreement for passenger service employees; low-fare carrier
expansion; actions of the U.S., foreign and local governments;
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations; the Asian
economic environment and travel patterns; the price of UAL
common stock; inflation; the economic environment of the
airline industry and the economic environment in general.
With respect to the proposed alliance transaction with Delta
Air Lines, factors, in addition to those factors noted above,
that could significantly affect the revenue, earnings, and
other benefits from the alliance include: the implementation
of alliances by competitors, and the outcome of discussions
with both carriers' pilot unions, international partners, and
commuter carriers regarding implementation of the proposed
alliance transaction.
