Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the interim periods ended </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">September 30,</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">2012</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> and </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">2011</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> include all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim periods. This includes all normal and recurring adjustments and elimination of significant intercompany transactions, but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Financial results for the Company and airlines in general can be seasonal in nature. In many years, the Company's revenues, as well as its operating income and net income, have been better in its second and third fiscal quarters than in its first and fourth fiscal quarters. Air travel is also significantly impacted by general economic conditions, the amount of disposable income available to consumers, unemployment levels, and corporate travel budgets. These and other factors, such as the price of jet fuel in some periods, the nature of the Company's fuel hedging program, the periodic volatility of commodities used by the Company for hedging jet fuel, and the requirements related to hedge accounting, have created, and may continue to create, significant volatility in the Company's financial results. See Note </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">5</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> for further information on fuel and the Company's hedging program. Operating results for the three</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> and nine</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> months ended </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">September 30,</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">2012</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;"> are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, </font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">2012</font><font style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:11pt;">.
