And to cheer us all up for 2017 - the Global Worry Index reaches new heights

Summary

• GDP growth and other macro indicators show overall improvement in

2017

• Oil price has increased since 2015 but oil futures prices indicate stability

• Passenger Traffic growth 2017 expected to slow, but will likely be higher

than previously forecast, with local exceptions

• Airline business model dynamic continues to evolve for a share of the

‘new’ profitability

• Aircraft demand remains strong, with most main new programmes sold

out till 2020

• Wider demand risk factors (war, politics, terrorism) continue to fission

A final thought

• Positive GDP Growth

• Profitable Industry

• Full Order Books

• Fuel drifting upwards, but relatively stable

• New aircraft technology coming on stream
