Item 8.01. Other Events.
On May 2, 2023, the Board of Directors (the "Board") of SkyWest, Inc. (the
"Company") approved a share repurchase plan, pursuant to which the Company is
authorized to repurchase up to $250 million of the Company's common stock. The
Company is authorized to repurchase such shares of common stock at prevailing
market prices in the open market, in privately negotiated transactions or by
other means in accordance with federal securities laws. Depending on market
conditions and other factors, such repurchases may commence or be suspended from
time to time by management without prior notice. The actual timing, number and
value of shares repurchased will be determined by the Company's management in
its discretion. This authorization supersedes the Board's previous share
repurchase plan approved in February 2019, which authorized the repurchase of up
to $250 million of the Company's common stock, of which approximately $9 million
remained after $30 million was repurchased in April 2023.
