St. George, UT, February 2, 2005 – SkyWest Airlines (Nasdaq: SKYW) is pleased to
announce plans to offer significantly enhanced service between Salt Lake City and Sun Valley.
The increase comes as part of the airline’s plan to increase frequency between Salt Lake City
and seven communities in the Western United States.
During the current winter ski season, SkyWest is providing eight daily Salt Lake City roundtrips.
For the month of March, service will increase to include a ninth daily roundtrip for the peak
winter travel period. When service traditionally drops to seven daily off-season roundtrips from
April through early June, SkyWest will instead offer eight daily roundtrips in the market.
