On February 9, 2007, passengers Daphne Renard and Todd Robins filed a class action suit against US Airways in San Francisco
Superior Court. The complaint alleges that US Airways breached its contract of carriage by charging additional fares and fees, after the
purchase of tickets on the usairways.com website, for passengers under two years of age who travel as "lap children," meaning that the
child does not occupy his or her own seat but travels instead on the lap of an accompanying adult. The named plaintiffs allege that they
purchased international tickets through the website for themselves and a lap child. Plaintiffs allege that after initially receiving an
electronic confirmation that there would be no charge for the lap child, they were later charged an additional $242.50. The complaint
alleges a class period from February 9, 2002 to the present. We have not yet been served with the lawsuit.
We are unable to estimate at this time the amount of loss or probable losses, if any, that might result from an adverse resolution of
the proceedings discussed above, and currently are unable to predict whether the outcome of these proceedings will have a material
adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition. We intend, however, to vigorously pursue all available defenses and
claims in these matters.

No matters were submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter of 2006.
