STRATEGIC DEVELOPMENTS
Iberia has reached agreements in principle with its pilots and cabin crew unions to introduce permanent structural change and fundamentally improve the airline's productivity. Salaries will remain frozen until 2015 and after that date, increases will be subject to the airline's profitability. Productivity measures include an increase in the number of duty days and flight hours per year. These agreements are subject to the approval of the unions' assemblies.
This summer Vueling will start flying new domestic routes from Rome and Florence. The airline will operate between Rome and Lamezia, Brindisi, Bari as well as Catania. Services will also be launched from Florence to Bari and Catania. In addition, Vueling has announced that two new routes will be added to its schedule, Barcelona-Tunis and Amsterdam-Santiago de Compostela.
Forward-looking statements:
Certain statements included in this report are forward-looking and are subject to assumptions, risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements can typically be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as "expects", "may", "will", "could", "intends", "plans", "predicts", "envisages" or "anticipates" and include, without limitation, projections relating to results of operations and financial conditions and International Consolidated Airlines Group S.A. (the 'Group') plans and objectives for future operations, discussions of the Group's Business Plan, expected future revenues, financing plans and expected expenditures and divestments. All forward-looking statements in this report are based upon information known to the Group on at the date of this report as well as the Group's current expectations and beliefs concerning future events affecting the Group which involve a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties. You are cautioned not to place any undue reliance on the forward-looking statements contained in this report which speak only as at the date of this report. The Group undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by any applicable laws and regulations.
It is not reasonably possible to itemise all of the many factors and specific events that could cause the Group's forward-looking statements to be incorrect or that could otherwise have a material adverse effect on the future operations or results of an airline operating in the global economy, though details of potential risks and uncertainties affecting the Group are described in the risk management and risk factors section of the report. Further information on the primary risks of the business and the risk management process of the Group is given in the Annual Report and Accounts 2012; these documents are available on www.iagshares.com.
