NOTE 14. GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise with separate financial information, which are evaluated regularly by the chief operating
decision maker and are used in resource allocation and performance assessments.
We are managed as a single business unit that provides air transportation for passengers and cargo. This allows us to benefit from an integrated revenue
pricing and route network. Our flight equipment forms one fleet, which is deployed through a single route scheduling system. When making resource
allocation decisions, our chief operating decision maker evaluates flight profitability data, which considers aircraft type and route economics, but gives no
weight to the financial impact of the resource allocation decision on an individual carrier basis. Our objective in making resource allocation decisions is to
optimize our consolidated financial results. 106
