Ad hoc Press Release in accordance with Article 15 of the Securities 
Trading Act
London, 29 May 2008 - For the first quarter of 2008, the sales volume
of the Air Berlin Group (including LTU, Belair and the airline 
company Walter) increased from EUR 631.4* million to EUR 654.5 
million (+4 percent). EBITDAR (Earnings before interest, taxes, 
depreciation, amortization and leasing expenses) increased from EUR 
17.3* million to EUR 41.2 million, i.e. an increase of 139 percent. 
Seasonal EBIT (Earnings before interest and taxes) improved from a 
loss of EUR -85.0* million to a loss of EUR -67.7 million (+20 
percent). The EBIT margin improved from -13.5 to -10.3 percent. Net 
loss improved from EUR -66.4* million to EUR -59.0 million (+11 
percent). As a result of the current difficult market environment, in
particular the high fuel prices, it is anticipated that operating 
income will be adversely affected during the further course of the 
year, making it difficult to obtain the envisaged EBIT corridor.  A 
comprehensive package of measures has been implemented in response. 
For the 2008 financial year and based on current kerosene prices, Air
Berlin´s Board continues to expect a positive EBIT.
Details on the 2008 Quarterly Report will be published on our website
on 29 May 2008 as of 8:30 a.m.: www.ir.airberlin.com
