results and supplemental data. That press release and the supplemental data are
filed as Exhibits to this Report on Form 8-K.
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in the Exhibits to this Report (or otherwise made by Delta
or on Delta's behalf) which are not historical facts, including statements about
Delta's estimates, expectations, beliefs, intentions, projections or strategies
for the future, may be "forward-looking statements" as defined in the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements involve
risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially
from historical experience or Delta's present expectations. Factors that could
cause these differences include, but are not limited to:
1. the many effects on Delta and the airline industry from the terrorist
attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, including the
following:
a. the adverse impact of the terrorist attacks on the economy in
general and the demand for air travel in particular;
b. the cost to Delta from the shutdown of the U.S. air
transportation system;
c. the change in Delta's operations and higher costs resulting
from new airline security directives;
d. the availability and cost of war risk and other insurance for
Delta and for other critical participants in the air travel
industry, such as the companies providing security services
at airports;
e. the extent to which Delta receives additional financial
assistance under the Air Transportation Safety and System
Stabilization Act;
f. the credit downgrade of Delta and other airlines by Moody's
Investors Service and Standard & Poor's, and the possibility
of additional downgrades, to the extent it makes it more
difficult and/or more costly for us to obtain financing;
g. potential declines in the values of the aircraft in Delta's
fleet or facilities and related asset impairment charges;
2
h. additional terrorist activity and/or war;
2. general economic conditions, both in the United States and in our
markets outside the United States, including the extent of the
weakening in the U.S. economy and the related decline in business
travel;
3. competitive factors in our industry, such as mergers and acquisitions,
the airline pricing environment, international alliances, codesharing
programs, and capacity decisions by competitors;
4. outcomes of negotiations on collective bargaining agreements and other
labor issues, including a pending union representation election among
Delta's flight attendants and union organizing efforts among other
employee groups;
5. changes in aircraft fuel prices, the availability of fuel, and the
availability and cost of fuel hedges;
6. disruptions to operations due to adverse weather conditions and air
traffic control-related constraints;
7. fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates;
8. actions by the United States or foreign governments, including the
Federal Aviation Administration and other regulatory agencies;
9. the willingness of customers to travel generally, and with Delta
specifically, which could be affected by factors such as Delta's and
the industry's safety record, Delta's on-time performance, Delta's
baggage handling performance and how well Delta responds to customer
complaints; and
10. the outcome of Delta's litigation.
Caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on Delta's
forward-looking statements, which represent Delta's views only as of November
1, 2001, and which Delta has no current intention to update.

DELTA AIR LINES REPORTS SEPTEMBER QUARTER 2001 RESULTS
ATLANTA, Nov 1, 2001 -- Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) today reported a net loss of
$295 million and a loss per share of $2.43 for the September 2001 quarter
versus net income of $273 million and diluted earnings per share of $2.08 in
the September 2000 quarter, excluding the unusual items described below.
Including unusual items, the September 2001 quarter net loss and loss per share
were $259 million and $2.13, respectively, versus net income of $133 million
and diluted earnings per share of $1.01 in the September 2000 quarter.
"The terrorist attacks against the United States on September 11, 2001
have had a severe impact on the airline industry," said Leo F. Mullin, Delta's
chairman and chief executive officer. "Due to the dramatic decrease in
passenger demand, Delta has taken several steps, including network changes and,
unfortunately, employee reductions, to respond to this difficult operating
environment."
Delta estimates that the tragic events of September 11 negatively
impacted revenues in the September 2001 quarter by approximately $400 million.
This is in addition to revenues that were already projected to be down due to a
weak economy and lingering effects of the 89-day Comair strike. In the
September 2001 quarter, Delta's unit costs increased 4.5 percent from the
September 2000 quarter, while non-fuel unit costs increased 6.4 percent,
excluding unusual items. Total operating expenses decreased 1.8 percent,
excluding unusual items, while available seat miles decreased 6.0 percent.
Delta's fuel hedging program saved Delta $69 million, pretax, in the quarter.
Delta is 67 percent hedged in the December 2001 quarter at approximately $0.59
per gallon.
On September 26, Delta announced that it will reduce staffing by up to
13,000 jobs across all major work groups over the next few months. "Delta's
people are Delta Air Lines," said Mullin. "This is the most difficult action I
have had to take since joining Delta."
Delta has offered its non-union employees in the United States and
Puerto Rico six voluntary job reduction programs. Over 11,000 Delta employees
elected to take the voluntary programs. "This extraordinary acceptance rate
affirms the attractiveness of these programs," said Frederick Reid, president
and chief operating officer of Delta. "Involuntary reductions are expected to
affect only 2,000 employees -- 1,700 pilots and 300 from the other work groups."
1
In addition to the workforce reductions, Delta has instituted a
broad-based recovery plan that includes eliminating discretionary spending,
cutting capital expenditures, and reducing product and service offerings. In
October 2001, Delta announced the closing of 35 of 70 city ticket offices, 11
of 50 Crown Room clubs, and five of 23 reservations call centers. Delta expects
to record charges in the December 2001 quarter related to its early retirement
program and impairment of fleet and facilities.
UNUSUAL ITEMS
During the September 2001 quarter, Delta recorded several unusual
items, net of tax: a $33 million non-cash charge related to equity rights,
primarily in priceline.com, to comply with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard (SFAS) 133; a $42 million charge related to severance costs associated
with the employee reduction programs; a $104 million gain for compensation
received under the Air Transportation Safety and System Stabilization Act; and
a $7 million gain on the sale of its investment in Equant, N.V.
In the September 2000 quarter, Delta recorded the following unusual
items, net of tax: a $141 million non-cash charge related to SFAS 133; a $13
million charge related to the decision to discontinue our Pacific gateway in
Portland, Ore.; and a one-time, non-cash gain of $10 million related to its
equity investment in Worldspan.

FINANCIAL POSITION
"An already challenging financial year for the airlines turned even
more difficult when terrorist attacks struck our nation," stated M. Michele
Burns, Delta's executive vice president and chief financial officer. "Delta
management's quick response to reduce capacity and cut costs, combined with the
assistance of government funds helped mitigate the financial pressures on our
company. Nevertheless, Delta and the industry continue to face serious
challenges ahead."
During the September 2001 quarter, Delta received $346 million from
the U.S. Government under the Air Transportation Safety and System
Stabilization Act to compensate Delta for a portion of its direct
2
and incremental losses resulting from the September 11 terrorist attacks. Delta
expects to receive a total of approximately $690 million under this program.
For accounting purposes, Delta recognized $171 million, pretax, of the
Stabilization Act compensation payment during the September 2001 quarter.
Additionally, on September 17, Delta received $1.25 billion from a public sale
of Enhanced Equipment Trust Certificates. As of September 30, Delta's cash
balance was $2.8 billion.
On October 12, 2001, Delta received $125 million in cash from the sale
of its stake in SkyWest Airlines. "Delta is pleased with its relationship with
SkyWest," said Burns. "This transaction was part of our ongoing initiative to
monetize non-core assets and in no way signals a change in our operational
relationship."
OPERATIONS UPDATE
The terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001 have had a significant
impact on Delta's operations. From September 11 through September 13, Delta
canceled over 6,500 flights. By September 16, Delta was operating approximately
80 percent of its pre-September 11 schedule. "The employees of Delta Air Lines
worked extremely hard to get the operation up and running in a safe, secure,
and timely manner," said Reid. "Our employees went well above and beyond the
call of duty to make sure our passengers' needs were met."
Delta's load factor from September 11 through September 30, 2001 was
48.8 percent on Delta's reduced capacity. For the month of October 2001, Delta's
preliminary results indicate that load factor increased to 61 percent. "Although
there are encouraging signs as our operations improve and passengers begin to
return, business is still far from what it was before the attacks," said Reid.
Delta is working with the Federal Aviation Administration and the
Department of Transportation to enhance Delta's security measures. Delta has
completed installation of new security devices on all of the cockpit doors on
its mainline aircraft.
NETWORK HIGHLIGHTS
Effective November 1, 2001, Delta will reduce its capacity by
approximately 16 percent, as measured by available seat miles from the level of
service planned before September 11, 2001, due to the decline in passenger
demand stemming from the terrorist attacks. As part of these reductions, Delta
will suspend approximately 50 percent of its Delta Express capacity to Florida
and will suspend certain international flights from John F. Kennedy Airport in
New York including flights to Tokyo, Tel Aviv, Munich, Dublin, Shannon, Cairo,
Dubai, Zurich, Brussels and Stockholm.
On October 5, Delta announced a realignment of some of its Delta
Connection carriers' regional jet operations to support Delta Air Lines'
network adjustments. The adjustments will maintain Delta network access for all
domestic markets currently served by Delta.
3
"In making these changes, Delta considered current and anticipated
passenger demand, route profitability, and the ability to accommodate customers
conveniently on other Delta flights," said Reid. "As demand returns, we will
look to re-instate mainline service to cities where it can be done profitably."
As a result of the capacity reduction, Delta is grounding 50 aircraft
for the remainder of 2001. Delta is currently in negotiations with Boeing and
Bombardier to defer certain new aircraft deliveries and will continually review
its fleet plan based on demand and operational needs.
On October 19, the U.S. and France announced an open skies air
transport agreement. Delta, along with its European SkyTeam partners Air France,
Alitalia and CSA Czech Airlines, filed an application for antitrust immunity
with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) earlier this year. This new
open skies agreement will enable the U.S. Government to complete its review and
consideration of the application. "We are hopeful that the DOT will now move
swiftly to approve the application so passengers can begin to realize the
benefits that will come from open skies and closer coordination among SkyTeam
partners," said Mullin.
Delta will host a webcast to discuss its quarterly earnings today,
November 1, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. The webcast is available via
the Internet at www.delta.com/inside/investors/index.jsp.
Delta's goal is to become the No. 1 airline in the eyes of its
customers, flying passengers and cargo from anywhere to everywhere. People
choose to fly Delta more often than any other airline in the world on 4,813
flights each day to 370 cities in 64 countries on Delta, Delta Express, Delta
Shuttle, Delta Connection carriers and Delta's Worldwide Partners. Delta is a
founding member of SkyTeam, a global airline alliance that gives customers
extensive worldwide destinations, flights and services. In addition to safely
and securely making reservations and purchasing tickets at delta.com, Delta
customers can select seats, upgrade, get up-to-date flight information, make
accommodations reservations, and more. U.S.-based travel agencies also can
access Delta Web fares for their customers via delta.com's Online Agency
Service Center. For more information, go to delta.com.

repainting, and computer software maintenance.
