Regional carriers. Passenger revenue of regional carriers declined $804 million primarily as a result of a 13% decrease in passenger mile yield while
traffic and capacity remained flat. The decrease in passenger mile yield reflects (1) a reduction in demand for air travel due to the global recession and (2) an
overall decrease in average fares due to competitive pricing pressures.
Cargo. Cargo revenue decreased due to capacity reductions, significantly reduced cargo yields and international volume as a result of the global recession,
and lower fuel surcharges due to the year-over-year decline in fuel prices. During 2009, we retired our remaining 10 dedicated freighter B-747-200F aircraft,
which contributed to a 40% decline in capacity.
Other, net. Other, net revenue increased $241 million primarily due to new or increased baggage handling fees and higher SkyMiles program revenue,
partially offset by decreased revenue from our alliance agreements and a reduction in our aircraft maintenance and repair service.
