Results of Operations - 2012 Compared to 2011
Operating Revenue
Passenger Revenue. Passenger revenue increased $1.5 billion , or 5% , due to an improvement in the passenger mile yield of 5% , on a 2%
decline in capacity. Passenger mile yield and unit revenue increased due to fare increases, higher revenue under corporate travel contracts and
improvements in our products and services.
International mainline passenger revenue increased $520 million. In early 2011, we faced industry overcapacity in the transatlantic market
and in connection with our joint venture partners, AirFrance-KLM and Alitalia, we reduced capacity in underperforming markets during the
second half of 2011 and in 2012. As a result, Atlantic PRASM was up 6% , driven by a 3% increase in yield on a 7% decrease in capacity.
Pacific passenger revenue increased 11% on a 3% and 6% increase in capacity and traffic, respectively. These results reflect Pacific market
improvement, as demand returned to levels seen prior to the March 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Latin America passenger revenue
increased 8% on a 3% and 6% increase in capacity and traffic, respectively.
