April's consolidated PRASM increase (compared to the same month in 2011) was 4.5%, the May results were (0.8%) (yes, negative), and the increase for June was estimated at between 5.0% and 6.0%. Overall, for the quarter, the results were abysmal compared to DL (or AA).
Someone recently posted that UA had such impressive results in 2Q2011 that it would be very difficult to increase unit revenue much beyond the 2011 numbers - the law of large numbers.
