ExpressJet And Premiere Global Sports Team Up For Ultimate NCAA Football Experience - Travel to the Turf in Same Day Style and Be Home in Time to Catch the Highlights

CHICAGO--(Business Wire)--
Premiere Global Sports (www.premieresports.com) and ExpressJet Airlines, Inc., a
wholly-owned subsidiary of ExpressJet Holdings (NYSE: XJT), have announced a
unique and exciting partnership that will provide fans same day, roundtrip air
service to NCAA pigskin events.

Premiere Global Sports` VIP game day packages include round trip air travel
(including open bar), roundtrip deluxe coach transfers between the airport and
game, refreshments on the coach and a professional travel host on board. Some
trips offer game tickets and pregame packages as well. Charters include
offerings to 35 Division I-A universities including teams from the Big 12, ACC,
Big 10, PAC 10 and SEC conferences. For groups, businesses, booster clubs,
donors and key customer or client entertainment, this program provides an
extraordinary football game day experience, with some packages as low as $399
per person.

"Premiere Global Sports is delighted to offer the ExpressJet package to our
clients," says Christy Bruce, Executive Vice President of Premiere Global
Sports` College Division in Champaign, IL. "Our clients can attend games quickly
and comfortably, virtually anywhere they`re played. ExpressJet has quickly
become one of the leaders in the aircraft charter industry, and offers service
and reliability that is unparalleled in the charter industry. This is perfect
for a memorable event and is sure to be water cooler talk on Monday morning."

ExpressJet can transport up to 50 people, to virtually any certified 121
airport, or private terminal where other carriers don`t have scheduled service.
In and out, the same day, is a real advantage for fans trying to reach stadium
locations and college towns on game day. Flying in and out at remote locations
that have historically been difficult to get to on a direct basis, such as State
College, PA, Lincoln, NE or Tucson, for example, is no problem. Other
universities include Alabama, Texas Tech, USC and Virginia Tech. ExpressJet and
Premiere Global Sports` inaugural flight will be to the Oregon versus Boise
State game in Boise, ID.

"We approached Premiere Global Sports because we know they have a great
following and it provides a new way to move people by making it easy to purchase
both your game and airline tickets through a single resource," said Catherine
Harris, ExpressJet Senior Director - Corporate Aviation. "Ultimately it takes
the hassle out of planning, so all fans have to focus on is watching their
favorite team play," added Harris.

Houston based ExpressJet Airlines, one of the world`s largest operators of
regional jet aircraft offering commercial and corporate service, offers all
leather seating, open bar, XM satellite radio at each seat, and the superior
service of chartered transportation. ExpressJet operates one of the youngest
aircraft fleets, with no middle seats, offering safe and comfortable travel.
ExpressJet has 214 aircraft in commercial service to more than 120 destinations
in North America and the Caribbean and 30 dedicated aircraft in its Corporate
Aviation charter division.

Premiere Global Sports is the industry leader in providing sports travel,
hospitality, and marketing services for consumers, corporations and
universities.
