EXHIBIT 99.1

INVESTOR RELATIONS UPDATE
January 5, 2012
General Comments
• | | 2011 Capacity Guidance — 2011 total system capacity is expected to be up approximately one percent vs. 2010. Domestic capacity is expected to be up slightly and international up approximately three percent. |
• | | Cash — As of September 30, 2011, the Company had $2.4 billion in total cash and investments, of which $384 million was restricted. |
The company expects to end the fourth quarter with approximately $2.3 billion in total cash and investments, of which approximately $365 million is restricted.
• | | Fuel — For the fourth quarter 2011, the Company anticipates paying an average of between $3.08 and $3.13 per gallon of mainline jet fuel (including taxes). Forecasted volume and fuel prices are provided in the table below. |
• | | Profit Sharing / CASM — Profit sharing equals approximately 10% of pre-tax earnings excluding special items up to a 10% pre-tax margin and 15% above the 10% margin. Profit sharing is excluded in the CASM guidance given below. |
• | | Cargo / Other Revenue — Cargo revenue, ticket change fees, excess / overweight baggage fees, first and second bag fees, contract services, simulator rental, airport clubs, and inflight service revenues. |
• | | Taxes / NOL — As of December 31, 2010, net operating losses (NOL) available for use by the Company is approximately $1.9 billion, all of which is expected to be available for use in 2011. The Company’s net deferred tax asset, which includes the NOL, is subject to a full valuation allowance. As of December 31, 2010, the valuation allowances associated with federal and state NOL are $368 million and $62 million, respectively. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, future utilization of the NOL will result in a corresponding decrease in the valuation allowance and offset the Company’s tax provision dollar for dollar. As a result, income tax benefits are not currently recognized in the Company’s statement of operations. |
For the full year 2011, the Company expects to be profitable and will use NOL to reduce its federal and state income tax obligation. The Company’s full year 2011 state income tax obligation related to certain states where the use of NOL is restricted is expected to be less than $1 million. Additionally, the Company does not expect to be subject to AMT Liability in 2011.

EXPRESS UPDATE
January 5, 2012
Express Comments
• | | US Airways Express is a network of ten regional airlines (2 wholly owned) operating under code share and service agreements with US Airways. All operating expenses (including purchase agreements) associated with US Airways Express are included within the Express Non-Fuel Operating Expense line item on our income statement. |
• | | Express CASM excluding fuel and special items is forecasted to be up six to eight percent for the year primarily due to the timing of maintenance programs at the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, PSA. The maintenance honeymoon for the CRJ-200 fleet ended in 2010. The additional PSA CRJ-200 maintenance expense increases Express CASM excluding fuel and special items by approximately 4 points on a year-over-year basis. |

GAAP to Non-GAAP RECONCILIATION
January 5, 2012
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information
The Company is providing disclosure of the reconciliation of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable financial measures on a GAAP basis. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide investors the ability to measure financial performance excluding special items and profit sharing, which is more indicative of the Company’s ongoing performance and is more comparable to measures reported by other major airlines. The Company believes that the presentation of mainline CASM excluding fuel, special items & profit sharing and Express CASM excluding fuel and special items is useful to investors as both the cost and availability of fuel are subject to many economic and political factors beyond the Company’s control.
