 2007 In Review
A Year of Strong Recovery

(Source of Financial Statistics: IATA)

1/22/2008
 2007 In Review
Main factor: World economy much
stronger than expected
Stronger demand for air travel meant
airlines able to raise fares to offset
rising fuel prices
World airline earnings totaled $5.6
billion compared to a loss of $500
million in 2006

1/22/2008
 2007 In Review

With the exception of Africa and Latin

America, all regions were profitable
US led the industry with earnings of $2.7
billion
Industry revenues rose 8.4% to $490 billion
Passenger revenues rose 9.9% to $390
billion
Industry operating profit climbed 26.4% to
$16.3 billion
1/22/2008
 2007 In Review

ICAO World Passenger traffic (RPKs)

rose 6.6% compared to 2006.
International RPKs climbed 7.3%, down
marginally compared to 2006. Load
factor rose from 75.8% to 76.5%,
reflecting good capacity management.

1/22/2008
 2007 In Review
Global air cargo traffic growth rate
remained at the 4%-5% level in 2007,
marking the third straight year of below
average growth. IATA cites "modal shift"
to sea shipping and points to poor
"airfreight indicators" such as slowing
semiconductor shipments and waning
manufacturing business confidence.
1/22/2008
 Outlook for 2008
Softening economy in the US affecting
world. World GDP growth forecast to
slow to 3.1% from 3.7%
US Recession is a real possibility
Credit crunch caused by US subprime
mortgage mess could begin to affect
aircraft financings; hasn't happened yet

1/22/2008
 Outlook for 2008

Oil prices extremely high. Full year

average expected at $78 a barrel, but
hit $100 in early January.
Industry profits expected to dip to $5
billion from $5.6 billion

1/22/2008
Biggest hit in North America

US profits drop to $2.2 billion. Europe,

Asia, much less affected.
US Airlines face labor pushback on
post-9/11 wage cuts as contracts
reopen

1/22/2008
Biggest hit in North America
NY State passenger bill of rights; Will it
spread to other states? What will
DOT/FAA propose in guidelines on
airline responsibility in delays?
How will JFK capacity agreement affect
airlines? DOT recently proposed new
rates and charges rules.

1/22/2008
 Europe: "A soft landing"
Earnings down 5% to $2 billion
Environmental politics is biggest
immediate challenge
LCCs continue to grow marketshare but
Europe flag carriers have much larger
base of longhaul intercontinental traffic
from which to draw

1/22/2008
 Europe: "A soft landing"

Longer term--rise of Middle East/Gulf

5th & 6th Freedom carriers pose a
threat by capturing traffic from
secondary markets that formerly flowed
over major hubs: Birmingham-Dubai-
Sydney vs. Birmingham-London-Sydney

1/22/2008
 Asia/Pacific

Asia-Pacific earnings down from $.7

billion to $.6 billion. Strong growth in
India, China keeps traffic strong
But: Indian domestic market is largely
unprofitable

1/22/2008
 Asia/Pacific
Merger/Consolidation could help
stability:

Air India/Indian
Jet Airways/Air Sahara (Jet Lite)
Kingfisher/Air Deccan

1/22/2008
 China
Domestic: lot of traffic growth but not
much money
International: Chinese airlines are losing
share to foreign counterparts.
Transition from point-to-point to hub and
spoke should help them

1/22/2008
 China
Also, entry into alliances, equity
partnerships:
Air China, Shanghai Airlines entered
Star
China Southern in SkyTeam
China Eastern/Singapore Airlines
transaction up in the air; new CAAC
head suspicious of foreign investment
1/22/2008
 Cargo

Experts expect airfreight traffic growth

to hold at 4%-5% for next 2-3 yrs. as
overall economic concerns, rising fuel
prices and a weak US dollar keep
demand down.

1/22/2008
 Cargo

IATA calls for massive "e-freight"

initiative to improve efficiency of paper-
intensive business and enhance air
cargo's competitiveness with sea
shipping.

1/22/2008
 Cargo

Asia continues to be the engine of the

global airfreight business but
"overcapacity" will likely drive down
cargo yields in the region.

1/22/2008
 Key Issues/
Trends for World Airlines
#1 Environment: EU will continue to
push for bringing all airlines into ETS;
continue to add taxes and other
measures on a state-by-state basis
Movement in Congress and states to
regulate US aircraft emissions

1/22/2008
 Key Issues/
Trends for World Airlines

#2 Fuel: Can industry make money at

$100 barrel oil?
#3 Open Skies, March 31: What will
happen on the North Atlantic

Executive Summary

The 20-149 seat regional and small narrowbody fleet will grow
with increasing geographical diversity

Economic pressures are driving aircraft manufacturers to

produce larger capacity aircraft families with low fuel burn, high
commonality and high reliability

Bombardiers QSeries, CRJ Series and CSeries families surpass

the evolutionary demands of the 20-149 seat aircraft market
