I just received this email:

We are committed to keeping you informed of changes related to the Dividend
Miles program in a forthright and timely manner.

The latest information related to the pending merger of US Airways and United
Airlines can be found at http://www.usairways.com/corporate/uaus/index.htm . The
web site is being updated regularly, as new information becomes available, in
order to provide you with the most complete and up-to-date information. The
regulatory approval process for the merger is currently underway. US Airways and
United Airlines remain fully committed to the merger and to delivering the
significant consumer benefits that it will bring.

In addition to merger news, American Airlines has decided to end the frequent
flyer and club relationships between US Airways Dividend Miles and American
Airlines AAdvantage, and US Airways Club and American Airlines Admirals Club
programs on August 23, 2001. We are discussing a transition plan with American
and this final date is subject to change. We will keep you advised as the plan
is completed. Until the official final date is determined, the reciprocal award
redemption, combining of miles and club relationship benefits you have come to
enjoy will, of course, remain in place. The US Airways Shuttle 500 mile bonus
promotion will continue until December 31, 2000, as scheduled.

US Airways is committed to providing you with world-class service, including a
frequent flyer program that is second to none. On behalf of the 45,000 women and
men of US Airways, I want to thank you for your business and continued loyalty.

Sincerely,

B. Ben Baldanza
Senior Vice President, Marketing
