                                     PART I

ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

GENERAL

SkyWest, Inc. (the "Company"), through its wholly-owned subsidiary, SkyWest
Airlines, Inc. ("SkyWest"), operates one of the larger regional airlines in the
United States. SkyWest provides passenger and air freight service and completes
over 880 daily flights. Pursuant to a joint marketing and code sharing agreement
with Delta Airlines, Inc. ("Delta"), SkyWest operates as a Delta Connection in
certain SkyWest markets. In October 1995, SkyWest entered into a marketing and
code sharing agreement with Continental Airlines, Inc. ("Continental") which
allows SkyWest to operate as a Continental Connection in certain markets in and
out of Los Angeles. Effective October 1, 1997, SkyWest entered into a new
code-sharing agreement ("United Express Agreement") with United Airlines, Inc.
("United") and began operating as United Express in Los Angeles, California. On
January 19, 1998, SkyWest executed an addendum to the United Express Agreement
to provide service as United Express in San Francisco, California, which began
June 1, 1998. On February 9, 1998, SkyWest executed an addendum to the United
Express Agreement to provide service as United Express in United's Portland and
Seattle/Tacoma markets and in additional Los Angeles markets, which began April
23, 1998. Prior to October 1, 1998, 97 percent of SkyWest's traffic was carried
under the DL code and 3 percent was carried under the CO code. In addition, all
of SkyWest's flights operated under the DL code and certain flights operating in
and out of Los Angeles operated under both DL and CO codes. As of May 31, 1998,
42 percent of SkyWest's traffic was carried under the DL code, 57 percent was
carried under the UA code and 1 percent was carried under the CO code.
Additionally, 42 percent of SkyWest's flights operated under the DL and CO codes
and 58 percent operated under the UA code. SkyWest will no longer provide
service as a Continental Connection effective July 15, 1998. With principal hubs
located at Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Portland and
Seattle/Tacoma, SkyWest offers a convenient and frequent flight schedule
designed to maximize connecting and origin-destination traffic for its major
code-sharing partners. SkyWest currently operates a fleet of 69 turboprop
aircraft and 10 regional jet aircraft.

Founded in 1972, the Company has experienced significant growth. During the past
five fiscal years, consolidated operating revenues have increased at a
compounded annual growth rate of 13 percent, from $182.9 million in fiscal 1994
to $297.1 million in fiscal 1998. Total passengers carried by SkyWest have
increased from approximately 1,731,000 to approximately 2,989,000 over the same
period. In fiscal 1998, the Company achieved record levels of passengers
carried, record consolidated operating revenues of $297.1 million, and net
income increased 117 percent to $21.9 million or $1.04 per diluted share. All
references in this Form 10-K give affect to a stock dividend of one share for
each share outstanding declared May 20, 1998.

The Company, through two wholly-owned subsidiaries, is also engaged in various
other transportation related businesses. Scenic Airlines, Inc. ("Scenic")
provides air tours and general aviation services to the scenic regions of
Northern Arizona and Southern Utah and operates 36 aircraft. National Parks
Transportation, Inc. ("NPT") provides car rental services through a fleet of
Avis vehicles located at six airports. In fiscal 1998, Scenic and NPT together
accounted for approximately 11.0 percent of the Company's consolidated operating
revenues.

JOINT MARKETING AND CODE SHARING AGREEMENTS

SkyWest's Code-Sharing Agreements with Delta, United and Continental authorize
SkyWest to use two-letter flight designator codes ("DL," "UA" and "CO,"
respectively) to identify its flights and fares in major central reservation
systems, to paint its aircraft with the colors and/or logos of its code-sharing
partners and to market and advertise its status as the Delta Connection, United
Express or Continental Connection carrier. The Code-Sharing Agreements either
allocate to SkyWest a portion of the total passenger fare on a formula or other
basis, subject to periodic adjustments, or provide for payments for contracted
flying on a per departure basis with incentives related to number of passengers
carried and customer service. SkyWest's passengers participate in the frequent
flyer



                                        1

programs of its code-sharing partners. Under the Code-Sharing Agreements, Delta,
United and Continental provide additional services to SkyWest, including
providing reservation services and ticket stock, issuing tickets, providing
ground support services and gate access and coordinating cooperative marketing,
advertising and other promotional efforts. SkyWest pays negotiated fees to its
code-sharing partners for services provided.

The significant terms of each of the Code-Sharing Agreements are as follows:

Delta. SkyWest has operated as the Delta Connection at Delta's Salt Lake City
and Los Angeles hubs since 1987. The Delta Agreement was revised in 1990 and
modified effective April 1, 1997, to facilitate interline connections in Salt
Lake City and Los Angeles, to adjust proration formulas (the portion of the
passenger fare allocated to SkyWest) and to permit SkyWest to seek other
code-sharing relationships in Los Angeles. The Delta Agreement continues until
April 2002, but is subject to earlier termination under various circumstances,
including upon 180 days' advance notice by either party for any or no reason.
The Delta Agreement was modified in April 1997, to be noncancellable (except for
cause) for a two-year period. Delta currently owns approximately 13.0 percent of
the outstanding Common Stock, which was acquired under the Delta Option
Agreement entered into in 1987, concurrently with the Delta Agreement.

United. On October 1, 1998, SkyWest and United entered into a United Express
Agreement pursuant to which SkyWest became a United Express carrier at United's
Los Angeles hub. In January 1998, SkyWest and United also entered into an
addendum to the United Express Agreement, pursuant to which SkyWest would become
the United Express carrier at United's San Francisco hub, which began June 1,
1998. In February 1998, SkyWest and United entered into an amendment to the
United Express Agreement, pursuant to which SkyWest would become the United
Express carrier in United's Portland and Seattle/Tacoma markets and in
additional Los Angeles markets, which began April 23, 1998.

Under the United Express Agreement, SkyWest currently operates flights in Los
Angeles city pairs on a contract basis; i.e., United pays SkyWest a flat rate
per flight departure, an additional amount per passenger and per passenger
incentives based upon on-time performance, flight completion rates and number of
passengers carried measured against agreed upon objectives. United controls
scheduling, ticketing, pricing and seat inventories in these city pairs. SkyWest
also operates as a United Express carrier in certain city pairs where SkyWest
receives no contract payments and United controls scheduling, inventory and
pricing. United must also concur in any marketing or code-sharing relationships
with any other carrier with respect to operations covered by the United Express
Agreement. United has consented to SkyWest's Code-Sharing Agreement with Delta
in designated city pairs in Los Angeles.

The term of the United Express Agreement is for five years ending in September
2002, with respect to operations in Los Angeles and for ten years, ending in May
2008, with respect to operations in San Francisco and the Pacific Northwest,
subject to termination by United upon 180 days' prior notice. United may,
however, terminate the United Express Agreement for cause upon 30 days' written
notice.

Continental. SkyWest entered into a Code-Sharing Agreement with Continental in
October 1996, which provided for service to selected California markets. The
Continental agreement expired in October 1997. SkyWest has continued to operate
as the Continental Connection without an agreement, but on the same terms as
provided in the expired agreement. SkyWest will no longer provide service as a
Continental Connection effective July 15, 1998.

ROUTES

Operating from its hubs in Los Angeles, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Portland
and Seattle/Tacoma, SkyWest serves approximately 64 cities in 13 states and
Canada with approximately 880 scheduled daily flights.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION

All interstate air carriers, including SkyWest and Scenic, are subject to
regulation by the DOT, the FAA and certain other governmental agencies.
Regulations promulgated by the DOT primarily relate to economic aspects of air
service. The FAA requires operating, air worthiness and other certificates,
approval of personnel who may engage in flight, maintenance or operations
activities, record keeping procedures in accordance with FAA requirements, and
FAA approval of flight training and retraining programs. The DOT and the FAA, as
well as other governmental agencies regulating SkyWest and Scenic, enforce their
regulations through, among other mechanisms, (i) certifications, which are
necessary for SkyWest's and Scenic's continued operations, and (ii) proceedings,
which can result in civil or criminal penalties or revocation of operating
authority. The FAA can also issue maintenance directives and other mandatory
orders relating to, among other things, inspection of aircraft, installation of
new safety-related items and the mandatory removal and replacement of aircraft
parts that the FAA believes might present a safety hazard.



                                        3
   6



SkyWest and Scenic management believe they are operating in compliance with FAA
regulations and holds all necessary operating and air worthiness certificates
and licenses. SkyWest and Scenic incur substantial costs in maintaining its
current certifications and otherwise complying with laws, rules and regulations
to which they are subject. SkyWest and Scenic flight operations, maintenance
programs, record keeping and training programs are conducted under FAA approved
procedures. SkyWest and Scenic do not operate at any airports where landing
slots are restricted.

All air carriers are required to comply with federal law and regulations
pertaining to noise abatement and engine emissions. All air carriers are also
subject to certain provisions of the Federal Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, because of their extensive use of radio and other communication
facilities. SkyWest and Scenic are also subject to certain other federal and
state laws relating to protection of the environment, labor relations and equal
employment opportunity. Management believes that SkyWest and Scenic are in
compliance in all material respects with these laws and regulations.

COMPETITION AND ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

The airline industry is highly competitive. SkyWest not only competes with other
regional airlines, some of which are owned by or are operated as code-sharing
partners of major airlines, but also faces competition from major airlines on
certain routes. SkyWest is the dominant regional airline operating out of the
Salt Lake City International Airport; however, Southwest Airlines Co., a
national low fare airline, also operates out of the Salt Lake City International
Airport, which results in significant price competition at the Salt Lake City
hub. Competition in the Southern California markets, which are serviced by
SkyWest from its hub in Los Angeles, is particularly intense, with a large
number of carriers in these markets. In its markets serviced from LAX, SkyWest's
principle competitors include Wings West, Inc. (operating as "American Eagle"),
Trans States Airlines, Inc. (operating as "US Air Express" and "Trans World
Express"). SkyWest believes its principle competitor in San Francisco will be
Trans States Airlines, Inc. (operating as "US Air Express"). In its Pacific
Northwest markets, SkyWest's principal competitor is Horizon Air Industries,
Inc. (operating as "Horizon Airlines").

Certain of SkyWest's competitors are larger and have significantly greater
financial and other resources than SkyWest. Moreover, federal deregulation of
the industry allows competitors to rapidly enter SkyWest's markets and to
quickly discount and restructure fares. The airline industry is particularly
susceptible to price discounting because airlines incur only nominal costs to
provide service to passengers occupying otherwise unsold seats.

Generally, the airline industry is highly sensitive to general economic
conditions, in large part due to the discretionary nature of a substantial
percentage of both business and leisure travel. In the past, many airlines have
reported decreased earnings or substantial losses resulting from periods of
economic recession, heavy fare discounting and other factors. Economic downturns
combined with competitive pressures have contributed to a number of bankruptcies
and liquidations among major and regional carriers. Negative economic conditions
may have a material adverse affect on regional airlines, including SkyWest.

EMPLOYEES

As of June 16, 1998, the Company employed 2,966 full-time equivalent employees
consisting of 1,063 pilots and flight attendants, 360 maintenance personnel,
1,234 customer service personnel, 74 reservation and marketing personnel, and
235 employees engaged in accounting, administration and other functions. The
Company's employees are not represented by any union. The Company is aware,
however, that collective bargaining group organization efforts among its
employees occur from time to time and are expected to continue in the future.
The Company has never experienced any work stoppages and considers its
relationship with its employees to be very good.



                                        4
   7



YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

The Company is currently modifying computer systems and application programs for
year 2000 compliance, with project completion scheduled for March 31, 1999. The
Company believes that the cost to modify its systems or applications will not
have a material effect on its financial position or results of operations. Any
expenditures will be funded through operating cash flows while any costs for new
software will be capitalized and amortized over the software's useful life.
Although the Company is working cooperatively with third parties with systems
upon which the Company must rely, the Company can not give any assurances that
the systems of other parties will be year 2000 compliant on a timely basis.
Systems operated by others which the Company would use and/or rely on would
include: Federal Aviation Administration Air Traffic Control, computer
reservation systems for travel agent sales as well as Delta and United
reservation, passenger check-in and ticketing systems. The Company's business,
financial condition and/or results of operations could be materially adversely
affected by the failure of its system and applications or those operated by
others.

SEASONALITY

As is common in the airline industry, SkyWest's operations are favorably
affected by increased travel, historically occurring in the summer months and
are unfavorably affected by decreased business travel during the months from
November through January and by inclement weather which occasionally results in
cancelled flights, principally during the winter months. However, SkyWest does
expect some mitigation of the historical seasonal trends due to an increase in
the portion of its operations in contract flying with United. Scenic's business
is also seasonal in nature. A large percentage of Scenic's passengers are
tourists visiting the Las Vegas and Grand Canyon areas during the summer months.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Form 10-K contains various forward-looking statements and information that
are based on management's belief, as well as assumptions made by and information
currently available to management. When used in this document, the words
"anticipate," "estimate," "project," "expect," and similar expressions are
intended to identify forward-looking statements. 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. Such statements are subject to certain risks, uncertainties and
assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or
should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary
materially from those anticipated, estimated, projected or expected. Among the
key factors that may have a direct bearing on the Company's operating results
include, among other things, changes in SkyWest's code-sharing relationships,
fluctuations in the economy and the demand for air travel, the degree and nature
of competition and SkyWest's ability to expand services in new and existing
markets and to maintain profit margins in the face of pricing pressures.

SkyWest's aircraft are turboprop and jet pressurized aircraft designed to
operate more economically over short-haul routes with lower passenger load
factors than larger jet aircraft. These factors make it economically feasible
for SkyWest to provide high frequency service in markets with relatively low
volumes of passenger traffic. Passenger comfort features of these aircraft
include stand-up headroom, a lavatory, overhead baggage compartments and flight
