General Guidance

ring is included in the CASM guidance given below.

Cargo / Other Revenue Cargo / Other Revenue includes: cargo revenue, ticket change fees, excess/overweight baggage fees, contract services,
simulator rental, airport clubs, Materials Service Company (MSC), and inflight service revenues.

Fuel - US Airways uses costless collars on Heating Oil Futures as a fuel-hedging vehicle. For Q206, the Company has 41% of its fuel hedged, and expects
to pay between $2.15 and $2.20 per gallon of jet fuel (including taxes and hedges). The collar range of the hedges in place is between $1.71 and $1.90 per
gallon of heating oil, or an equivalent price of $67.37 per barrel of crude oil. Forecasted volume, fuel prices, hedge percentages, and equivalent price per
barrel of crude oil are provided in the table below.

Taxes/ NOLs - After the merger, US Airways and America West had a total of approximately $1.4 billion of net operating loss carryforwards (NOL) to
shelter future taxable income. Of this amount approximately $1.0 billion is available to shelter federal taxable income in the calendar year 2006. Due to
accumulated losses through the years ended December 31, 2005, the Companys deferred tax asset, which includes the $1.4 billion of NOL discussed
above, has been subject to a valuation allowance. As a result, when profitable, the Companys utilization of those NOL does not result in the recognition
of income tax expense for book purposes.

For Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) purposes, only 90% of AMT NOL may offset AMT taxable income. Accordingly, of the $1.0 billion of NOL
available in 2006, 10% or up to $100 million would be deemed AMT taxable income and therefore subject to tax at the AMT rate of 20%. The Company
expects to book tax expense and pay cash taxes associated with AMT in 2006.

Share Count At the end of Q106, the Company had 81.7 million basic, and 93.4 million diluted shares outstanding. As previously announced, the
Company redeemed its 7.5% convertible notes, which accounts for an increase of 3.86 million basic shares. Both basic and diluted shares are provided in
the table below.

Cash - At the end of the first quarter 2006, the Company had approximately $2.6 billion in total cash. After the debt refinancing transaction in April 2006
the cash position increased to approximately $2.9 billion. The Company anticipates ending the second quarter with approximately $3.15 billion in total
cash.

GAAP to Non-GAAP RECONCILIATION
July 7, 2006
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Information

US Airways Group, Inc. (the Company) is providing disclosure of the reconciliation of reported non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable financial measures on a GAAP basis. The
Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures provide investors the ability to measure financial performance excluding special items, which is more indicative of the Companys ongoing
performance and is more comparable to measures reported by other major airlines. The Company believes that the presentation of mainline CASM excluding fuel, special items & transition expense
and Express CASM excluding fuel is useful to investors as both the cost and availability of fuel are subject to many economic and political factors beyond the Companys control.

This update contains forward-looking statements that are not limited to historical facts, but reflect the Companys current beliefs, expectations or intentions regarding future events. All forward-
looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. For examples of such risks and uncertainties, please
see the risk factors set forth in the Companys 2005 Form 10-K and its other securities filings, including any amendments thereto, which identify important matters such as the consequences of fuel,
labor costs, competition, and industry conditions, including the demand for air travel, the airline pricing environment and industry capacity decisions, regulatory matters and the seasonal nature of the
airline business. The Company undertakes no obligation to p
