1. OFT/DOJ Investigations
OFT/DOJ Investigations
The Office of Fair Trading (OFT) and the United States Department of Justice
(DOJ) are investigating alleged cartel activity involving British Airways and
other airlines in relation to pricing of passenger air transportation, including
fuel surcharges.
British Airways' policy is to conduct its business in full compliance with all
applicable competition laws. British Airways is assisting the OFT and DOJ with
their investigations. Martin George, Commercial Director, and Iain Burns, Head
of Communications, have been given leave of absence during the investigation.
Certain information included in this statement may be forward-looking and
involves risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by the forward looking statements.
Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, projections relating to
results of operations and financial conditions and the Company's plans and
objectives for future operations, including, without limitation, expected future
revenues, financing plans and expected expenditures and divestments. Any
forward-looking statements in this announcement are based upon information known
to the Company on the date of this announcement. The Company undertakes no
obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether
as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
It is not reasonably possible to itemise all of the many factors and specific
events that could cause the Company'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. Information on some
factors which could result in material difference to the results is available in
the Company's SEC filings, including, without limitation the Company's Report on
Form 20-F for the year ended March, 2006.
