Notes
- Revenue, operating income, net income, assets and equity
- You may include an indicator icon to indicate the direction of change compared to the previous fiscal year; to avoid confusion, place the indicator before the number. If no citable information is available for previous fiscal year data, please do not use an icon.
- Losses
- A loss is expressed as a negative number in the form
[[United States dollar|US$]]-128 million <small>(''FY 2011'')</small>
which displays as US$-128 million (FY 2011)
- Foreign currency earnings reports
- If the airline reports financial data in currency other than United States dollars, please substitute the appropriate currency indicator in place of
[[United States Dollar|US$]]
Use[[Canadian Dollar|C$]]
,[[Euro|€]]
,[[Pound sterling|£]]
, etc.
- Please report dollar figures in the infobox consistently
- Use rounded millions or exact figures. Please avoid mixing styles.
- Examples of rounded millions:

[[United States dollar|US$]]324 million <small>(''FY 2011'')</small>
[[United States dollar|US$]].870 million <small>(''FY 2011'')</small>
- Examples of exact figures:
[[United States dollar|US$]]11,276,367,880 <small>(''FY 2011'')</small>
[[United States dollar|US$]]324,008,131 <small>(''FY 2011'')</small>
[[United States dollar|US$]]870,218 <small>(''FY 2011'')</small>
- Examples of rounded millions:
- Bases, hubs, secondary hubs and focus cities
- Where the total number of bases, hubs, secondary hubs and/ or focus cities for an airline is 10 or greater and listing all of them results in an excessively long infobox which disrupts the formatting of the rest of the article, consideration should be given to using collapsible lists for this section, for example at EasyJet and Ryanair.
Example
The data in the example below is not necessarily factually accurate and is for demonstration purposes only. Due to fair use restrictions, an image of an Air Canada airliner is substituted for the Air Canada logo.

Microformat
The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the organisation's details parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue article across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a reader, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Sub-templates
- If the organisation has an "established", "founded", "opened" or similar date, use {{start date}} (unless the date is before 1583 CE).
- If the organisation has a URL, use {{URL}}.
- If the organisation has a "coordinates" field, use {{coord}} to include a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
Classes
hCard uses HTML classes including:
- adr
- agent
- category
- country-name
- extended-address
- fn
- geo
- label
- latitude
- locality
- longitude
- nickname
- note
- org
- region
- street-address
- url
- vcard
Please do not rename or remove these classes; nor collapse nested elements which use them.
