On Thursday, May 17, 2012, Jude Bricker, Senior Vice President of Planning of Allegiant Travel Company (the “Company”) suggested at the Bank of America Global Transportation Conference that the year over year change in total scheduled service revenue per available seat mile (TRASM) would be closer to zero for the quarter ending June 30, 2012. What he intended to say was that TRASM would likely outperform scheduled service passenger revenue per available seat mile (PRASM) for the quarter. That is, the Company expects that the percentage decrease for TRASM for the quarter ending June 30, 2012 will be less than the percentage decrease expected for PRASM. The Company did not provide, and is not providing, specific TRASM guidance for the second quarter of 2012.
