Group market trends, RASK and yield development
During August 2011, currency adjusted RASK was up by 0.7% versus
previous year and yield was down 2.2%. For September 2011, (change vs
last year), underlying currency adjusted RASK and yield are expected to
be weaker than 2010.

The market growth continues to be good, but remains unpredictable due to
added capacity in certain markets, risk in the global economy and risk
of continued high jet fuel prices. This is also adding uncertainty to
the yield and RASK outlook going forward.

Scandinavian Airlines is continuously improving its customer offering,
that is also reflected in a clearly improved customer satisfaction that
is the highest in eleven years.
