EXPATRIATES (THEY WILL HAVE TO COME)

FLEET GROWTH (EXTRACT)

Currently, we have commitments for the purchase/leasing of Q Boeing 787 aircraft
and 3 Boeing 777-BOOER, all due for delivery from Q4 2013. In addition to the above,
we have options on 4 other 787 aircraft. From mid this year, we will take delivery of 8
E-190 jets, one a month till February 2013. All in all, by 2021, our fleet size will
increase from the current 34 to 107. This will allow us to both increase our
frequencies and grow our destination coverage from 56 currently to 115.

ADDITIONAL CAPTAINS REQUIRED
2012-2013 (74)
2013-2014 (64)
2014-2015 (95)
2015-2016 (53)
2016-2017 (59)

KQ needs help.these expansion figures are crazy.Hence my opinion that we need expatriates.
