risks and uncertainties. Forward-looking statements cannot be relied upon due to, among other things, changing external events and
general uncertainties of the business. Actual results may differ materially from results indicated in forward-looking statements due to a
number of factors, including without limitation, our ability to successfully achieve or sustain positive net profitability or to realize our
initiatives and objectives, industry, market, credit, economic and geopolitical conditions, energy prices, currency exchange, competition,
our dependence on technology, cybersecurity risks, our ability to pay our indebtedness and secure financing, our ability to successfully
implement appropriate strategic initiatives or reduce operating costs, war, terrorist acts, epidemic diseases, airport user and related fees,
high levels of fixed costs, liquidity, our dependence on key suppliers including regional carriers and Aimia Canada Inc., the successful

employee and labour relations and costs, our ability to preserve and grow our brand, pension issues, environmental factors (including
weather systems and other natural phenomena and factors arising from man-made sources), limitations due to restrictive covenants,
insurance issues and costs, our dependence on Star Alliance, interruptions of service, changes in laws, regulatory developments or
proceedings, pending and future litigation and actions by third parties and our ability to attract and retain required personnel, as well as
the factors identified throughout this presentation and those identified in section 18 "Risk Factors" of Air Canada's 2017 MD&A dated
