<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>Mesa Air Group Reports First Quarter 2007 Revenues and Earnings</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>PHOENIX, January&nbsp;25, 2007 &#150; </B>Mesa Air Group, Inc. (NASDAQ-MESA) today announced 1st quarter after
tax earnings of $8.0&nbsp;million on operating revenues of $347.6&nbsp;million. Total operating revenues for
the first quarter of 2007 increased $24.0&nbsp;million, or 7.4%, primarily the result of year-over-year
increased cost reimbursements under our revenue guarantee contracts. Net income and earnings per
share for the 1st quarter were $8.0&nbsp;million and $0.20 per share on a diluted basis (all amounts
reported herein are after tax and all per share amounts reported hereafter are on a diluted basis)
respectively, as compared to net income of $13.0&nbsp;million and $0.31 per share for the same period of
fiscal 2006. Pro forma net income for the quarter was $8.1&nbsp;million, or $0.20 per share. Pro forma
net income excluded losses on an equity investment of $0.1&nbsp;million. This compares to pro forma
earnings of $13.8&nbsp;million, or $0.32 per share for the comparable period of fiscal 2006.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Total Available Seat Miles (ASMs) for the first quarter of 2007 increased 1.8% from the first
quarter of 2006. Although we added additional aircraft since last year, there was only a slight
year-over-year increase in available seat miles due to changes in our fleet utilization as a result
of flying shorter stage lengths and a reduction in active aircraft due to the repainting of our
aircraft under contract with US Airways in US Airways&#146; new livery.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">As of December&nbsp;31, 2006, the Company&#146;s cash, marketable securities and debt investments were
approximately $256.3&nbsp;million, which includes $12.0&nbsp;million of restricted cash.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Events during the first quarter:
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mesa Air Group Inc. signed a Joint Venture agreement with Shenzhen Airlines to create a Chinese
regional airline, the name of which is yet to be determined. The new airline is expected to
commence scheduled services within 12&nbsp;months, initially operating 50-seat regional jets on domestic
routes within the People&#146;s Republic of China. Focus cities for the new services will include
Shenzhen, Beijing, Chongqing, Xiamen, Nanjing, Kunming, Dalian, Shenyang, Xian, Zhengzhou and
Nanning.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Freedom Airlines, a wholly owned subsidiary of Mesa Air Group, added the final two Dash 8s under
our Delta Connection agreement and placed three CRJ-700 aircraft into service with United as part
of our obligation to transition 15 50-seat aircraft with larger 70-seat regional jets. Freedom
also placed an additional four ERJ-145 regional jets into operation with Delta.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">To supplement our consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with
GAAP, the Company uses non-GAAP measures of pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per
share, which are adjusted from our GAAP results as shown above. These non-GAAP adjustments
are provided to enhance the user&#146;s overall understanding of our current financial
performance. We believe the non-GAAP results provide useful information to both management
and investors by excluding certain charges and other amounts that we believe are not
indicative of our core operating results. These non-GAAP measures are included to provide
investors and management with an alternative method for assessing the Company&#146;s operating
results in a manner that is focused on the performance of the Company&#146;s ongoing operations
and to provide a more consistent basis for comparison between quarters. In addition, since
we have historically reported pro forma results to the investment community, we believe the
inclusion of non-GAAP numbers provides consistency in our financial reporting. These
measures are not in accordance with or an alternative for GAAP and may be different from pro
forma measures used by other companies.
