Myers Loreto Ft. Lauderdale Monterrey © 2021 Mapbox © OpenStreetMap La Paz Mazatlán Route Map | January 2021 To our Shareholders, The COVID-19 pandemic changed the landscape of our industry in material ways. It tested the mettle of the airline industry, our business, and our people in every way. While we are still a long way from returning to 2019 demand levels, our teams continue to demonstrate remarkable flexibility. We’ve stayed proactive, maintained our focus, and learned invaluable lessons to adapt to the environment and keep our people, passengers, and business safe. Very early in the pandemic, we set key priorities to ensure we successfully emerge from the crisis and ensure we play a key role in the recovery. First, the personal health and wellbeing of our people and passengers; second, maintaining strong cash and liquidity; and third, remaining strong and agile in working with our partners. We held firm to those priorities and are fortunate to maintain a strong balance sheet and product, and to have completed the year successfully avoiding furloughing any crewmember or mechanic. During the most difficult year in our industry’s history, SkyWest was honored to receive the Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Award for the second year in a row, this year being named a top 50 recipient and the only regional airline company on the list. We have also been named to Forbes’ America’s Best Employers list for 2021, and again were the only regional airline on the list. This type of recognition is something we work together with our people to earn every day, and we’re incredibly proud of our outstanding team of professionals. Against the challenging backdrop of 2020, we maintained our focus to successfully execute on our agreements and ensure we are prepared to play a central role in responding to demand recovery: Throughout the year, we maintained our strong delivery schedule while remaining flexible with our partners and their needs. We received 37 E175s for United and Delta, and removed 62 50-seat aircraft from service in our Delta and American operations. We also acquired additional aircraft within our leasing entity and have ensured that business is focused on assets within our operating footprint. We were among the first to successfully resume continued qualification training with expanded COVID testing across the operation, and maintained stringent requirements and processes for social distancing, cleaning and face coverings. We have stayed ahead of the latest industry and federal health guidance and our teams successfully adapted to the new normal. We have spent the last several years reducing risk and enhancing fleet and financing flexibility to ensure we’re well positioned. While the pandemic continues to impact the industry, we are confident our fleet will continue to fill a critical role in the return to travel. We are focused on remaining aggressive and deliberate to take care of our people and our customers as we seek to emerge from this crisis as a better, stronger business. We believe our competitive advantage is and will continue to be our ability to provide best in class operations, maintain strong liquidity, and invest for the future. We believe as we remain firm in our execution of these objectives, SkyWest will continue to create value for our employees, our customers and our investors. We want to thank our team of professionals for their good work in delivering exceptional performance and adapting to continue to deliver world-class service to our passengers last year. Jerry C.

  • Skywest, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2020 Results
    NEWS RELEASE CONTACT: Investor Relations Corporate Communications 435.634.3200 435.634.3553 [email protected] [email protected] SkyWest, Inc. Announces Second Quarter 2020 Results Second Quarter Results • Net loss of $26 million, pre-tax loss of $33 million, or $0.51 loss per share • SkyWest took delivery of 21 used E175 aircraft under a previously-announced agreement with United Airlines • SkyWest took delivery of two new E175 aircraft and three used E175 aircraft under a previously-announced agreement with Delta Air Lines ST. GEORGE, UTAH, July 30, 2020 -- SkyWest, Inc. (NASDAQ: SKYW) (“SkyWest”) today reported financial and operating results for Q2 2020, including net loss of $26 million, or $0.51 per share, compared to net income of $88 million, or $1.71 per diluted share, for Q2 2019. The primary factor in SkyWest’s lower results in Q2 2020 compared to Q2 2019 was reduced flight schedules and lower demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. Commenting on the results, Chip Childs, Chief Executive Officer of SkyWest, said, “COVID-19 continues to cause unprecedented disruption across the airline industry. The safety and well- being of our people and passengers remains our main focus. Maintaining strong liquidity and working collaboratively with our partners are our other priorities. I want to thank our 14,000 employees for their dedication to our passengers, each other and our mission during this pandemic.” Financial Results Revenue was $350 million in Q2 2020, down from $744 million in Q2 2019, due to the COVID- 1 19 pandemic that caused a significant reduction in the number of scheduled flights SkyWest operated under its flying contracts compared to the same period last year.

Rome, 4 June 2015 - Alitalia today introduced its new brand, new aircraft livery and new visual identity to its employees, to the worldwide media, and to key business and institutional stakeholders. The new developments were unveiled at a major launch event at Rome's Fiumicino Airport, for more than 1,500 Alitalia staff, who were joined by a special guest of honour, Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi. The airline also announced product upgrades across all classes of service on its international wide-body fleet with the aim of repositioning itself on the world stage as a leader in superior service and a powerful ambassador for Italy. The new developments mark a major milestone for Italy’s national airline, as it revitalises its business across all areas of its global operations. “The new livery presented today marks a major milestone in the history of one of the most iconic Italian brands in the world,” said Luca Cordero di Montezemolo, Chairman of Alitalia. “We have also unveiled the results of the outstanding work to create more comfortable interiors and to introduce a strong, innovative service culture. “Alitalia’s livery is universally associated with Italy and viewed as iconic and highly- recognised. However, it was clear that it needed to evolve to bring Alitalia into the 21st century in a way that could meet our ambitious objectives and the most demanding market expectations. “What you see here today is classic Italian style projected into the future with a modern, fresh feel.
