Brief summary: The purpose of this study is to assess the immunogenicity and safety of GSK Biologicals' trivalent influenza vaccine manufactured for the 2012/2013 influenza season administered in adults (18 to 60 years) and in elderly (over 60 years).


Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Subjects who the investigator believes can and will comply with the requirements of the protocol.
* A male or female aged 18 years or above at the time of vaccination.
* Written informed consent obtained from the subject.
* Healthy subjects or subjects with well-controlled chronic diseases as established by medical history and clinical examination before entering the study.
* Female subjects of non-childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study.
* Female subjects of childbearing potential may be enrolled in the study, if the subject:

  * has practiced adequate contraception for 30 days prior to vaccination, and
  * has a negative pregnancy test on the day of vaccination, and
  * has agreed to continue adequate contraception during the entire treatment period and for 2 months after completion of vaccination.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Use of any investigational or non-registered product other than the study vaccine within 30 days preceding the dose of study vaccine, or planned use during the study period.
* Chronic administration of immunosuppressants or other immune-modifying drugs within the six months prior to vaccination. Inhaled and topical steroids are allowed.
* Administration of immunoglobulins and/or any blood products within the three months preceding the administration of the study vaccine or planned administration during the study period.
* Administration of an influenza vaccine within the six months preceding the study vaccination.
* Planned administration/ administration of a vaccine other than the study vaccine within 30 days before study vaccination and during the entire study period.
* Clinically or virologically confirmed influenza infection within the six months preceding the study vaccination.
* Acute disease and/or fever at the time of enrolment.
* Acute, clinically significant pulmonary, cardiovascular, hepatic or renal functional abnormality, as determined by physical examination or laboratory screening tests.
* Chronic underlying disease, not stabilized or clinically serious.
* History of chronic alcohol consumption and/or drug abuse.
* Any confirmed or suspected immunosuppressive or immunodeficient condition, based on medical history and physical examination.
* History of Guillain-Barré syndrome.
* History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the vaccine.
* Anaphylaxis following the administration of vaccine(s).
* Pregnant or lactating female.
* Female planning to become pregnant or planning to discontinue contraceptive precautions.
* Any condition which, in the opinion of the investigator, prevents the subject from participating in the study.
