Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacifico Informs Regarding Announcement That AMR Corporation, Parent of American Airlines and American Eagle, Filed Voluntary Petitions for Chapter 11 Reorganization in the United States Bankruptcy Courts

GUADALAJARA, Mexico--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Grupo Aeroportuario del Pacífico, S.A.B. de C.V., (NYSE: PAC; BMV: GAP) (“the Company” or “GAP”) informs that AMR Corporation (“AMR”), parent of American Airlines Inc. (“American”) and AMR Eagle Holding Company (“American Eagle”), has publicly announced , that with the goal of achieving a cost and debt structure that is industry competitive, to assure its long-term viability and ability to continue delivering a world-class travel experience for its customers, AMR and certain of its U.S.-based subsidiaries (including American and American Eagle) filed voluntary petitions for Chapter 11 reorganization in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

AMR Corporation’s Board of Directors assured that Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection is in the best interest of the company and its shareholders. Similar to what competitors have done in recent years, the Chapter 11 process permits American and American Eagle to continue operating flights normally during the reorganization. In addition, both companies will continue to operate normally as a result of the availability of approximately US$4.1 billion in cash.

To date, AMR Corporation, through its two subsidiaries American and American Eagle, operates at 6 of the 12 airports managed by GAP, (Aguascalientes, Guanajuato, Guadalajara, Morelia, Puerto Vallarta and Los Cabos); From January to October 2011, AMR Corporation, through its subsidiaries, transported 695,893 total passengers at GAP’s airports, which corresponds to 4.2% of GAP’s network.

In conclusion, we do not expect that GAP's operations will be materially affected by this event.
