• Crew pay agreements and higher retention levels
Offset by:
• Fall in navigation rates
• Lower marketing expenditure;
• Reduced airport charges
• Wet leasing costs.

Impact of coronavirus c.4.5%:

Cost saving measures Operating cost cash burn running rate (per week)
Significant reduction in our other operating costs has been achieved through management actions including:
• Crew and head office furlough leave, voluntary redundancy and pay reduction, recruitment freeze
• Stopping discretionary spend on non-mandatory training, travel, contractors & consultancy etc
• Stopping non-essential project opex & IT expenditure
• No selling and marketing expenditure
• Non-essential maintenance deferred
Cash flow deferrals have also been achieved through:
• Payment term extensions negotiated with many of our major suppliers including airports, ground handlers and fuel providers
• All government tax payment schemes have been explored including ‘time to pay’ arrangements and reclaiming corporation tax payment on account
Fleet deferrals

Airbus deal
Amendment to deal provides vastly reduced capex and excellent fleet flexibility
Deferral of 24 aircraft deliveries:
• 10 aircraft deliveries from FY20
• 12 aircraft deliveries from FY21
• 2 aircraft deliveries from FY22
• 24 operating leases due for renewal providing further flexibility

Scenario planning
11 * Includes cash burnt during the grounding period
Scenario assumptions:
• Refunds vs voucher/rebook ratios continue at a similar rate as those seen to date
• Crew and head office to remain on furlough leave until end May 2020
• FX and fuel rates based on spot price as at 6th April ’20
• Assumes no material change to card acquirer arrangements
• Minimal new booking revenues received - limited to 6 months prior to commencement of flying programme
Total cash burn scenarios
Further liquidity opportunities:
• Leveraging our remaining unencumbered aircraft (around half of the fleet)
• Further deferrals of our planned maintenance spend
• Seeking additional government support around extending furlough leave and tax relief
• Organisational and operational restructure
