About the Company

SkyWest Airlines

Regional airline contractor for major partners

SkyWest operates mainly through SkyWest Airlines as a regional feeder and contract carrier for major U.S. airlines, serving Delta Connection, United Express, American Eagle, and Alaska SkyWest. Its services run under fixed-fee capacity purchase agreements, where the partner pays SkyWest to operate flights, cover fuel, and handle scheduling and ticketing, with a smaller portion under revenue-sharing pro-rate agreements. The company relies on a large regional jet fleet and a hub-and-spoke network to connect smaller airports to major hubs, differentiating itself by its long-standing carrier partnerships, scale in regional jet ops, and CPA-based revenue model. SkyWest’s goal is to maintain reliable regional connectivity, expand its network through existing and new partnerships, and grow its charter and related ventures to diversify revenue sources.
