On top of double digit volume growth, unit revenue (total revenue per seat flown) for the full year has increased by 2.1% vs. last year. We re-iterate our guidance from August: that we expect reported pre-tax profit for the year ended September 2005 to be broadly in line with last year. 'During the month we announced four new routes from our newest continental European base - Basel - to Paris (Charles de Gaulle), Amsterdam, Lisbon and Prague. We have expanded our Berlin base with the launch of two new routes, to Rome and Milan (Malpensa). At the same time, we have continued to grow our UK product, with the announcement of one new route from Newcastle to Faro and the launch of two new routes from London Gatwick to Berlin and Murcia.'
