United Reports September 2016 Operational Performance

CHICAGO, Oct. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- United Airlines (UAL) today reported September 2016 operational results.
UAL's September 2016 consolidated traffic (revenue passenger miles) increased 3.9 percent and consolidated capacity (available seat miles) increased 3.6 percent versus September 2015. UAL's September 2016 consolidated load factor increased 0.3 points compared to September 2015.

The company now expects third-quarter 2016 consolidated passenger unit revenue to decline 5.5 to 6.0 percent compared to the third quarter of 2015. The year-over-year performance was primarily impacted by a strong U.S. dollar, lower surcharges, travel reductions from customers impacted by lower oil prices, competitive actions and passenger demand not growing at the same pace as industry capacity. The company's consolidated passenger unit revenue result was near the top end of the initial guidance range largely due to better than expected September close-in bookings driven by the timing of certain holidays.

United Airlines to Hold Live Webcast of Third-Quarter 2016 Financial Results
October 07, 2016
CHICAGO, Oct. 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- United Airlines will hold an analyst conference call to discuss third-quarter 2016 financial results on Tuesday, October 18, at 9:30 a.m. CT/10:30 a.m. ET. A live, listen-only webcast of the conference call will be available at ir.united.com. The company will issue its third-quarter financial results and fourth-quarter investor update after market close on Monday, October 17.

The webcast will be available for replay within 24 hours of the conference call and then archived on the website for three months.

PRASM guidance midpoint earlier in the quarter was about -6.5%, so the revision to a -5.7% midpoint is favorable.

Much better than the 61.9% on time from August (A:0), and the 98.3% completion.

And I appreciate the reporting of consolidated numbers.
