NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS 
 
For the six months to June 30, 2016 
 
1.             Corporate Information AND BASIS OF PREPARATION 
 
International Consolidated Airlines Group S.A. (hereinafter 'International
Airlines Group', 'IAG' or the 'Group') is a leading European airline group,
formed to hold the interests of airline and ancillary operations. IAG is a
Spanish company registered in Madrid and was incorporated on April 8, 2010. On
January 21, 2011 British Airways Plc and Iberia Líneas Aéreas de España S.A.
Operadora (hereinafter 'British Airways' and 'Iberia' respectively) completed
a merger transaction becoming the first two airlines of the Group. Vueling
Airlines S.A. ('Vueling') was acquired on April 26, 2013, and Aer Lingus Group
Plc ('Aer Lingus') on August 18, 2015. 
 
IAG shares are traded on the London Stock Exchange's main market for listed
securities and also on the stock exchanges of Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao and
Valencia (the 'Spanish Stock Exchanges'), through the Spanish Stock Exchanges
Interconnection System (Mercado Continuo Español). 
 
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared in
accordance with IAS 34 and authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on
July 28, 2016. The condensed consolidated interim financial statements herein
are not the Company's statutory accounts and are unaudited. The Directors
consider that the Group has adequate resources to remain in operation for the
foreseeable future and have therefore continued to adopt the going concern
basis in preparing the interim financial statements. 
 
The basis of preparation and accounting policies set out in the IAG Annual
Report and Accounts for the year to December 31, 2015 have been applied in the
preparation of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements,
except as disclosed in note 2. IAG's financial statements for the year to
December 31, 2015 have been filed with the Registro Mercantil de Madrid, and
are in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards as
adopted by the European Union (IFRSs as adopted by the EU) and with those of
the Standing Interpretations issued by the IFRS Interpretations Committee of
the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The report of the
auditors on those financial statements was unqualified. 
 
On May 6, 2016 IAG announced that it had exercised its option to redeem all of
its outstanding E390 million 1.75 per cent convertible bonds due in 2018. As
an alternative to the redemption of the bonds, the bondholders had the option
under the terms and conditions to exchange bonds for ordinary shares in the
Company. In June 2016, all remaining bondholders exercised their option to
exchange their convertible bonds for ordinary shares, resulting in the issue
of 91,981,118 new shares. 
 
The financial statements for the prior year include reclassifications that
were made to conform to the current year presentation. 
 
In 2016 the Group reviewed and amended the reporting of individual line items
in the consolidated Income statement to better reflect the nature of
underlying transactions and improve comparability between reporting periods.
As a result, for the year to December 31, 2015, revenue previously reported as
Other revenue has been reclassified to Passenger revenue and Cargo revenue.
Expenditure in respect of certain subcontracted services, previously allocated
to Property, IT and other costs, has been reclassified to Handling, catering
and other operating costs. These reclassifications have not affected reported
total revenue, expenditure or operating profit for 2015. Details of these
adjustments are provided in the table below.

2.             Accounting Policies 
 
The Group has adopted the following standards, interpretations and amendments
for the first time in the six months to June 30, 2016: 
 
IAS 1 (Amendment) 'Presentation of financial statements' disclosure
initiative; effective for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2016. The
amendments clarify guidance in IAS 1 on materiality and aggregation, the
presentation of subtotals, the structure of financial statements, and the
disclosure of accounting policies. The adoption of the amendments has not
resulted in a significant change to the presentation and disclosures in the
Group's financial statements. 
 
IAS 19 (Amendment) 'Defined Benefit plans: Employee contributions'; effective
for periods beginning on or after February 1, 2015. The amendments clarify the
application of IAS 19 'Employee Benefits' (2011) to plans that require
employees or third parties to contribute towards the cost of benefits. The
amendments have not resulted in a change to the financial position or
performance of the Group. 
 
Other amendments resulting from improvements to IFRSs did not have any impact
on the accounting policies, financial position or performance of the Group.
The Group has not early adopted any standard, interpretation or amendment that
has been issued but is not yet effective. 
 
3.             Business combination 
 
On August 18, 2015, the Group acquired 100 per cent of the issued ordinary
share capital of Aer Lingus Group for E2.55 per share. 
 
The fair values of the assets and liabilities arising from the acquisition
were presented in the financial statements for the year to December 31, 2015
on a provisional basis. During the six months to June 30, 2016 the valuation
exercise was finalised, resulting in an increase of E58 million to the fair
value of property, plant and equipment arising from the acquisition, and a
related E7 million deferred tax liability. 
 
The goodwill is recognised as follows: 
 
   E million                                     
   Cash consideration                     1,351  
   Fair value of identifiable net assets  1,079  
   Goodwill                               272    
 
 
4.             Exceptional items 
 
                                                  Six months to June 30  
   E million                                      2016                   2015  
   Revision in US past service cost benefits (1)  (51)                   -     
   Pre-acquisition cash flow hedge impact (2)     (28)                   -     
   Recognised in expenditure on operations        (79)                   -     
   Tax on exceptional items                       14                     -     
   Total exceptional credit after tax             (65)                   -     
 
 
(1)        Revision in US past service cost benefits 
 
During the period the Group made changes to the US PRMB (Post-Retirement
Medical Benefits) to further bring the level of benefits in line with national
trends seen in the US. This scheme is accounted for in a similar way to a
defined benefit plan, so any reduction in benefit results in the recognition
of a past service gain when the plan amendment occurs. This change has
resulted in a one-off gain in employee costs of E51 million in the six months
to June 30, 2016, and a related tax charge of E10 million. 
 
(2)        Derivatives and financial instruments 
 
Under IFRS 3 Business combinations, gains or losses on cash flow hedges
acquired should not be recycled to the income statement but recognised in
equity. Following the acquisition of Aer Lingus, IAG continued to unwind the
cash flow fuel hedges acquired in reported fuel expense. For the six months to
June 30, 2016, a credit of E28 million was recognised as an exceptional item,
reversing the impact of unwinding the cash flow hedges to arrive at the total
Fuel, oil costs and emissions charges. A related tax charge of E4 million was
also recognised. 
 
5.             SEASONALITY 
 
The Group's business is highly seasonal with demand strongest during the
summer months. Accordingly higher revenues and operating profits are usually
expected in the latter six months of the financial year than in the first six
months. 
 
6.             SEGMENT INFORMATION 
 
a.             Business segments 
 
British Airways, Iberia, Vueling, Aer Lingus and Avios are managed as
individual operating companies. Each airline operates its network operations
as a single business unit. The chief operating decision maker is responsible
for allocating resources and assessing performance of the operating segments,
and has been identified as the IAG Management Committee. The IAG Management
Committee makes resource allocation decisions based on profitability,
primarily by reference to the passenger markets in which the companies
operate. The objective in making resource allocation decisions is to optimise
consolidated financial results. Therefore, based on the way the Group treats
its businesses, and the manner in which resource allocation decisions are
made, the Group has four (2015: three) reportable operating segments for
financial reporting purposes, reported as British Airways, Iberia, Vueling and
Aer Lingus. 
 
In 2016, the Avios business has been treated as a separate operating unit and
is included in Other Group companies in the Business segment information; it
is not a separate reportable segment. In 2015, Avios was part of the British
Airways and Iberia operating segments based on ownership. The 2015
comparatives have been restated to reflect this change. 
 
Other Group companies include Avios and the head office companies IAG, IAG GBS
and IAG Cargo.

Capital expenditure authorised and contracted but not provided for in the
accounts amounts to E14,307 million (December 31, 2015: E16,091 million). The
majority of capital expenditure commitments are denominated in US dollars, and
as such are subject to changes in foreign exchange rates. 
 
12.           IMPAIRMENT REVIEW 
 
Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite lives are tested for impairment
annually (in the fourth quarter) and when circumstances indicate the carrying
value may be impaired. The key assumptions used to determine the recoverable
amount for the different cash generating units are disclosed in the IAG Annual
Report and Accounts for the year to December 31, 2015. For the six months to
June 30, 2016, following consideration of the impact of the UK referendum, the
Group has concluded that there are no indicators that the carrying value may
exceed the recoverable amount. 
 
13.           NON-CURRENT ASSETS HELD FOR SALE 
 
The non-current assets held for sale of E13 million represent one Boeing
737-400 engine and one Airbus A340-300 aircraft. These are presented within
the British Airways and Iberia operating segments respectively and will exit
the business within 12 months of June 30, 2016. 
 
Assets held for sale with a net book value of E4 million were disposed of
during the six months to June 30, 2016, related to the sale of three Boeing
737-400 airframes and eight Boeing 737-400 engines, resulting in a profit of
E2 million. 
 
At December 31, 2015 the non-current assets held for sale of E5 million
represented three Boeing 737-400 airframes and nine Boeing 737-400 engines
that had been stood down from use and were being marketed for sale. These were
presented within the British Airways segment.

b.             Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities 
 
The fair values of the Group's financial instruments are disclosed in
hierarchy levels depending on the nature of the inputs used in determining the
fair values as follows: 
 
Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets and
liabilities. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and
regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing
service, or regulatory agency, and those prices present actual and regularly
occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis; 
 
Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are
observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. The fair
value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is
determined by valuation techniques. These valuation techniques maximise the
use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as
possible on entity specific estimates; and 
 
Level 3: Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable
market data. 
 
The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, other current interest-bearing
deposits, trade receivables, other current assets and trade and other payables
approximate their carrying value largely due to the short-term maturities of
these instruments.

b.             Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities 
 
The following methods and assumptions were used by the Group in estimating its
fair value disclosures for financial instruments: 
 
Instruments included in Level 1 comprise listed asset investments classified
as available-for-sale and interest-bearing borrowings which are stated at
market value at the balance sheet date. 
 
Instruments included in Level 2 include derivatives and interest-bearing
borrowings. 
 
Forward currency transactions and over-the-counter fuel derivatives are
entered into with various counterparties, principally financial institutions
with investment grade ratings. These are measured at the market value of
instruments with similar terms and conditions at the balance sheet date using
forward pricing models. Counterparty and own credit risk is deemed to be not
significant. 
 
The fair value of the Group's interest-bearing borrowings including leases is
determined by discounting the remaining contractual cash flows at the relevant
market interest rates at the balance sheet date. 
 
All resulting fair value estimates are included in Level 2 except for certain
investments which are classified as Level 3. 
 
The carrying amounts and fair values of the Group's financial assets and
liabilities at June 30, 2016 are set as follows:

period. 
 
Out of the financial instruments listed in the previous table, only the
interest-bearing borrowings are not measured at fair value on a recurring
basis.

The fair value of Level 3 financial assets cannot be measured reliably; as
such these assets are stated at historic cost less accumulated impairment
losses with the exception of the Group's investment in The Airline Group
Limited, an unlisted investment. During 2014 other shareholders disposed of a
combined holding of 49.9 per cent providing a market reference from which to
determine a fair value. The investment remains classified as a Level 3
financial asset due to the valuation criteria applied not being observable,
with the resultant fair value uplift in 2014 being non-recurring in nature.
