</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2"><B>PHOENIX, Feb 4, 2004 &#151; </B>Mesa Air Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: MESA), today announced its
intention to sell, subject to market and other conditions, $100&nbsp;million issue
price of Convertible Notes due 2024, to qualified institutional buyers pursuant
to Rule&nbsp;144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;). The
interest rate, conversion rights (including the terms upon which the notes will
be convertible into Mesa Air Group common stock) and offering price are to be
determined by negotiations between Mesa Air Group and the initial purchasers of
the notes. Mesa Air Group plans to use the net proceeds from the offering for
general corporate purposes and to fund obligations with respect to future
regional jet deliveries.
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation to buy any of
these notes and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">The notes being offered and the common stock issuable upon conversion of the
notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state
securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration under, or an applicable exemption from, the registration
requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">Mesa currently operates 159 aircraft with 1,012 daily system departures to 151
cities, 40 states, the District of Columbia, Canada, Mexico and the Bahamas. It
operates in the West and Midwest as America West Express; the Midwest and East
as US Airways Express; in Denver, Los Angeles, and Chicago as United Express;
in Kansas City with Midwest Airlines and in New Mexico and Texas as Mesa
Airlines. The Company, which was founded in New Mexico in 1982, has
approximately 4,400 employees. Mesa is a member of the Regional Airline
Association and Regional Aviation Partners.
</FONT>

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">This press release contains various forward-looking statements that are based
on management&#146;s beliefs, as well as assumptions made by and information
currently available to management. Although the Company believes that the
expectations reflected in such forward-looking statements are reasonable; it
can give no assurance that such expectations will prove to have been correct.
These statements, in addition to statements made in conjunction with the words
&#147;expect,&#148; &#147;anticipate,&#148; &#147;intend,&#148; &#147;plan,&#148; &#147;believe,&#148; &#147;seek,&#148; &#147;estimate,&#148; and
similar expressions, are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the
Safe Harbor provision of Section&nbsp;27A of the Securities Act of 1933 as amended
and Section&nbsp;21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as amended. These
statements relate to future events or the future financial performance of Mesa
and only reflect Management&#146;s expectations and estimates. The following is a
list of factors, among others, that could cause actual results to differ
materially from the forward-looking statements: changing business conditions in
certain market segments and industries; changes in Mesa&#146;s code sharing
relationships; the inability of either America West or US Airways to pay its
obligations under the code share agreements; the ability of Mesa to
successfully retire portions of its turboprop fleet; the unavailability of, or
inability to secure upon acceptable terms, financing necessary to purchase
aircraft we have ordered; an increase in competition along the routes Mesa
operates or plans to operate; delays in completion by the manufacturer of the
ordered and yet-to-be delivered aircraft; changes in general and regional
economic conditions; changes in fuel price; the increased cost and reduced
availability of insurance; Mesa&#146;s relationship with employees and the terms of
future collective bargaining

<P align="left"><FONT size="2">agreements; the impact of current and future laws; additional terrorist
attacks; Congressional investigations, and governmental regulations affecting
the airline industry and Mesa&#146;s operations; bureaucratic delays; amendments to
existing legislation; consumers unwilling to incur greater costs for flights;
unfavorable resolution of negotiations with municipalities for the leasing of
facilities; and risks associated with litigation outcomes. One or more of these
or other factors may cause Mesa&#146;s actual results to differ materially from any
forward-looking statement. Mesa is not undertaking any obligation to update any
forward-looking statements contained in this press release.
