(Dow Jones)--US Airways Group Inc. (UAIRQ <http://money.excite.com/jsp/qt/full.jsp?time=0&symbol_search_text=UAIRQ > ) will cut its capacity in May, cutting 14 flights and returning 11 Boeing 737 aircraft to lessors. In a press release Friday, the bankrupt airline cited sustained high fuel costs and weak revenue caused by industry overcapacity and low fares. In October, US Airways unveiled plans to boost its capacity starting February, by adding 230 more daily flights without adding more airplanes. On Friday, the airline said it will discontinue service to San Salvador and Panama City, where employees will be furloughed. The company didn't say how many workers would be affected and a representative wasn't immediately available. Other destinations affected by the cuts will be replaced with regional jets or by increased use of the mainline existing fleet. Including the capacity cuts, systemwide available seat miles are expected to increase 4% to 6% from a year earlier, the company said. Adjustments in service starting in May will include a small change in service at US Airways' Charlotte, N.C., and Philadelphia hubs as well as the discontinuation of some flights at Fort Lauderdale/Hollywood International Airport. US Airways will operate one less daily departure between Charlotte and Atlanta, Raleigh-Durham, N.C., Orlando and West Palm Beach, Fla. In Philadelphia, US Airways will operate one less flight to Hartford, Buffalo, Norfolk, Va., Seattle, Fort Lauderdale and Orlando, Fla. Additionally, three Philadelphia-Tampa flights will be discontinued. Nonstop service between Fort Lauderdale and Panama City, Panama; San Salvador, El Salvador; San Juan and Newark also will be discontinued. ------=_NextPart_000_0021_01C51CAF.FA4C8320 Content-Type: image/gif; name="dji.gif" Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64 Content-Location: http://money.excite.com/img/dji.gif R0lGODlhiAAnAPQAAP///yMfIMjHx1pXWJGPj0xJSqyrq3ZzdNbV1Z6dnePj4zEtLvHx8T87PGhl Zrq5uYSBggAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACwAAAAA iAAnAAAF/yAAFEFZDgQjroJjLoc6mCJiDiJhQmYitqZATPQwOVaLEkEQDOYaQQdiRa1ar9istfma injcAmNWEh1uImhgcC4JADpuQxUvKQAK0yPBDTQAZE0LXlqFhoVMfWtfigEEbQEADEknAEVuJGV8 igeAQQSWJgqQBQOmEAZBaiVHh66vK6klBUAmCIklPi4lDXUAspW7fyYNeSadYAELAKvKcCXLmQEq K7sBEJJosNuGyaCTetY4ALiOJgLNC8YBBrgOpD9BDFwGZDgvAvlvgQsQDw/5CHEbaCXQAxGBNpUw EM9EnTo9oP1ySIldQzdcBqiBUM6JwhegCIrcIkpERYh3AP8oXABMTUU1oJJ99ALMXAlIJgzU1IbT 4cifAGxIJBekZjUjHdlxuWPQiZkbwtbZSnaAgNWDP6wNBUoQGA4G0hqUEyG1XZMDHTsBIFZOhYKK BtQcCVQmUMqgpgYwfEaDK8E6BxI0eyCVwANpBYgGUdBxitA1844JCLtWSSgTiT9ZJQBsAcA6y/wO pHsWoaJBeILgKDcOGKieXXBhXaVX0UcuIUVvqxhkQe63cggFeVNuL6SDYPskIGCNd6Pnqq8KuKtb S968BwxQW8EAQqYBCbYDMtVq/AAHAh7JIyJNUQNTVhPoo26Icb7lBEwteE9AfvX/h7TnxwHNYOYA Z9MBeMX/LQRAMEABDiQgkIL/SdUHCgZMSOEhDAiw14a6IZAAaQNmCOKJKBrywAHONZAdfSnGGOOK zhUgoYw44qgABDUmAGMWEBzR3RE3/jDAG9ww4AJWOfpVTxMN+MhNAWoVgA1LKxTxoyFVISBekwQp QABvMGhYBQMEiGnJAwgw1IsPLImIBwFtDuIDAwmEZwBhBuQWFJ0CLFAemGH2FOWXWMwABR8OODgP FEw8sMAy7yUAQQMkAOLAAgUsimlKDzTgwABFfEjoNqM0UYCphqTCxGQ8LhFAEXwAcMBcC4wxgINM oJUKAjZgI0IBVh0Zyamo9nQkNwQUIOk8JKBArLSTOdAn/y2zPuiCAg80C4eDKzgCnrfIwnKLPvkQ 5ICLCCggxQDANsqAAQ4wcIA/uwLibprnIQCBLqSukB9Dt5bbZJQzgsWkwSnmd8CW/z3oJ8MUV2zx xRhzcy6603GsjwgdosvALT+QlQ81AZ0pX7sep0wOuvblE/PJP6T7S3gvE4euFzYLwHMNNG+zawEQ El2AAnzkGYClxyoZwGRiHFClWwGI8dSEEerQ7AxJi5tY0jzkkR2xMFyzAJJ8IBPh10sDECQf+SU2 wz4hJRaUEIh2M56uqz39KgDl8YGAC3CkNKsIi+RwLBXH9oKADra+WkQ+T4+wFijdyvd0O/GkWTk7 f+uz+f/TOnSyxN2GT+zKQab80vqrr55ew9I6DB6PsIk/s4UPnOlulod+k36QIx6y+SqwnafCFHqV i54e6VCI+UYqezkiUuuA0MIH5QmoFe6t7KhFAKaIj6N7FdDsBTlRCTiQGBPtI34rkn+z4Mj6poTO /ahwpFLVGyxSi/UIgj2NqIdyBzAfQkqxhpA0ahprMd/6qFAHOhyrV1YiSgLLR4t4IKlz+Dtb8xDY CzgI4AxosZVGEKe6VxSwb5RLDwO2o7W5pWEGw2vN+pCEADa54A07JF0AGEO6OzgCIHeoHwiPlb8R xm4aSzDGdEwxxMuVTGjjeF3wpgOQLAmxBv64RgQRsr6zkJwwDUC84NMm9yo1OWKGoFCiAlJhmABM gQ36e2J69rE5pTHEemjixguJEsPIcWcahxGBf8i3CAGggIk/yBUzFOdB2FXuHnGMY+VyYMMGDE8A 88AGoNZIOuI8DQIzFIIV+/SAQRXCAJPKUCxJQLSqkeCDgMCDWuKUhBksYAC/hIJGLkgebCAACtig ZR5qWctUvMc3I6gaC4hWg/OEJBVsiObR/OAihCSAJan4pR9mwJkGhAAAOw== ------=_NextPart_000_0021_01C51CAF.FA4C8320--
