     Statements  in  this report contain various  forward-looking
statements  within the meaning of Section 27A of  the  Securities
Act  of  1933,  as  amended, and Section 21E  of  the  Securities
Exchange  Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the  Company's
expectations or beliefs concerning future events.  When  used  in
this   document  the  words  "expects",  "plans,"  "anticipates,"
"indicates,"  "believes," "forecast," "guidance,"  "outlook"  and
similar  expressions  are  intended to  identify  forward-looking
statements.    Forward-looking   statements   include,    without
limitation, the Company's expectations concerning operations  and
financial  conditions, including changes in  capacity,  revenues,
and  costs,  future financing plans and needs,  overall  economic
conditions, plans and objectives for future operations,  and  the
impact  on  the  Company of its results of operations  in  recent
years  and  the sufficiency of its financial resources to  absorb
that  impact. Other forward-looking statements include statements
which  do not relate solely to historical facts, such as, without
limitation, statements which discuss the possible future  effects
of  current known trends or uncertainties, or which indicate that
the  future  effects of known trends or uncertainties  cannot  be
predicted, guaranteed or assured.  All forward-looking statements
in  this report are based on information available to the Company
on  the date of this report. The Company undertakes no obligation
to  publicly  update  or  revise any  forward-looking  statement,
whether  as  a  result  of  new  information,  future  events  or
otherwise.   This document includes forecasts of  unit  cost  and
revenue performance, fuel prices, capacity and traffic estimates,
other  income/expense  estimates, and  statements  regarding  the
Company's   liquidity,  each  of  which  is   a   forward-looking
statement.  Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of
factors  that could cause the Company's actual results to  differ
materially  from  the  Company's  expectations.   The   following
factors, in addition to other possible factors not listed,  could
cause  the  Company's  actual results to differ  materially  from
those  expressed  in  forward-looking  statements:   changes   in
economic,   business  and  financial  conditions;  the  Company's
substantial  indebtedness; continued high  fuel  prices  and  the
availability of fuel; further increases in the price of fuel; the
impact  of  events  in  Iraq; conflicts in  the  Middle  East  or
elsewhere; the highly competitive business environment  faced  by
the  Company, with increasing competition from low cost  carriers
and financially distressed carriers; historically low fare levels
and  fare simplification initiatives (both of which could  result
in  a  further  deterioration of the  revenue  environment);  the
ability  of  the  Company  to reduce its  costs  further  without
affecting    operational   performance   and   service    levels;
uncertainties   with  respect  to  the  Company's   international
operations;  changes in the Company's business strategy;  actions
by  U.S.  or foreign government agencies; the possible occurrence
of  additional terrorist attacks; another outbreak of  a  disease
(such  as SARS) that affects travel behavior; uncertainties  with
respect  to the Company's relationships with unionized and  other
employee  work  groups; the inability of the Company  to  satisfy
existing  financial or other covenants in certain of  its  credit
agreements;  the availability and terms of future financing;  the
ability of the Company to reach acceptable agreements with  third
parties;  and increased insurance costs and potential  reductions
of   available   insurance   coverage.   Additional   information
concerning these and other factors is contained in the  Company's
Securities  and  Exchange Commission filings, including  but  not
limited to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the  year
ended December 31, 2004.

This Eagle Eye provides updated guidance for the first quarter
and the full year 2005.

unit cost guidance is in-line with prior guidance at 10.0 cents

increase between 3.5% to 4.5% year over year.  Consolidated first

short-term  investment  balance well over $3  billion,  including
approximately  $500  million in restricted  cash  and  short-term
investments.
