NOTE: Data from TWA, Northwest, and America West are included as these carriers merged with American Airlines, Delta, and US Airways respectively. The large change in available seat miles per gallon for Frontier appears to be due to suspected misreporting of data in Q4 2010. P5.2 data is used for Q4 2010 fuel use data.
