​ The Company had total cash outflows for leases of US$449,004 in 2022 (US$458,968 in 2021 and US$284,363 in 2020). ​ During 2020 the Company applied practical expedients to leases in accordance with IFRS 16 guidance on lease modification accounting for rent concessions for those lease modifications arising as a direct result of COVID-19. The net impact on the consolidated statement of operations for 2020 was US$8,880 which reflects the changes to lease payments that arose from such concessions. ​ During the years ended of December 31, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not have lease modifications arising as a direct result of COVID-19. ​ For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 the amounts recognized in profit or loss were as follow: ​

​ i) Return obligations The aircraft lease agreements of the Company also require that the aircraft and engines be returned to lessors under specific conditions of maintenance. The costs of return, which in no case are related to scheduled major maintenance, are estimated and recognized ratably as a provision from the time it becomes likely such costs will be incurred and can be estimated reliably. These return costs are recognized on a straight-line basis as a component of variable lease expenses and the provision is included as part of other liabilities, through the remaining lease term. The Company estimates the provision related to airframe, engine overhaul and limited life parts using certain assumptions including the projected usage of the aircraft and the expected costs of maintenance tasks to be performed. For the years ended December 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020, in relation with this provision the Company expensed as supplemental rent US$58,658, US$55,668 and US$65,986, respectively. Extension options Certain lease agreements contain extension options, which the Company evaluates exercising once the lease period comes to its end, based on the market conditions at such moment. The lease liabilities corresponding to leases on which it was decided to extend are remeasured for the period negotiated between the Company and the lessor. During 2022 and 2021 the Company decided to exercise extension options for some agreements that resulted in an increase in the lease liability and the corresponding right of use assets by an amount of US$30,653 and US$66,850, respectively.
