Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, we have also been talking to the air carriers. We have had numerous discussions I guess over the last while with NATA and we informed them that we were going to do this formally in December of this year. We've also been consulting with the air carrier consultation committee that we've been talking to in the last while. So the industry knew and has known of our plans. How they impact will be felt by industry I guess is dependent on how the carriers pass on those costs. We're assuming it will be passed on to the traveling public, and our estimation is that on average we will probably see tickets go up by three or four dollars.
