"Skywest rewards passengers with Velocity



Skywest Airlines announced today that it is joining Velocity, the award winning
loyalty program partnered by Virgin Blue.



From 1 November 2007, Velocity Members can earn Velocity Points on Skywest's
domestic network.



Skywest's Chief Executive Officer, Paul Daff said the Velocity program provided
significant benefits for passengers.



"By joining the Velocity program, passengers have the opportunity to earn
Velocity Points for every mile flown on qualifying Skywest flights.  Now, our
passengers can earn Velocity Points, which can be redeemed for heaps of
fantastic rewards, from flights, to accommodation, car hire, movies and
shopping," Mr Daff said.



Mr Daff went on to say that passengers travelling to and from Skywest's fifteen
destinations would greatly benefit from the outstanding benefits offered by
Velocity.  And that Velocity was an exciting addition to the Skywest product.



"Skywest offers a premium economy product with full in-flight service and the
most spacious economy class legroom in Australia.  Now the Velocity loyalty
program gives our passengers the added benefit of earning rewards just by flying
with us.  I believe this to be the best news for Western Australian travellers,
and will further encourage local tourism," he said.



Virgin Blue Chief Executive, Brett Godfrey, said, "Like Virgin Blue, Skywest is
a high-quality, service-oriented airline and we are particularly pleased to
welcome Skywest into our Velocity program as our latest partner.



"We are also very pleased to be able to offer Velocity Members even more
opportunities to earn Points."



Velocity Points can be earned on all Skywest flights, excluding flights to and
from Bali and charter flights.



As a launch offer, Skywest is offering double Velocity Points for flights taken
between 1 December 2007 and 31 January 2008.  More information on this offer and
the program can be found by visiting the Skywest website at www.skywest.com.au.
