Non - GAAP Reconciliation – Adj CASM Adjusted CASM, which is a non - GAAP financial measure, is also a key airline cost metric and excludes fuel costs, costs related t o our freighter operations (starting in 2020 when we launched our freighter operation), certain commissions and other costs of selling our vacations product from thi s m easure as these costs are unrelated to our airline operations and improve comparability to our peers. Adjusted CASM is one of the most important measur es used by management and by our board of directors in assessing quarterly and annual cost performance. Adjusted CASM is also a measure commonly used by indus try analysts and we believe it is an important metric by which they compare our airline to others in the industry, although other airlines may exclude certain oth er costs in their calculation of Adjusted CASM.
