    TEMPE, Ariz., Dec. 11 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- US Airways (NYSE: LCC)
is relaxing certain fees for customers who may have to change travel plans
as a result of the Midwest winter ice storms.

    The airline is offering the following revised policies, which apply to
all customers flying Dec. 11 through Dec. 13 on any US Airways or US
Airways codeshare flight to or from the following locations: Oklahoma City;
Wichita, Kan.; Omaha, Neb.; Des Moines, Iowa; Kansas City, Mo.; St. Louis;
Milwaukee, Wis. and Chicago-O'Hare.

    Customers are strongly encouraged to check flight status at
usairways.com or by calling 800-428-4322 before arriving at the airport and
to allow plenty of driving time to the airport.

    If US Airways service continues to operate to the affected
destinations, you can make certain changes without incurring the standard
change fee, advance reservation or ticketing requirements:


-- Travel must be completed by Dec. 20. -- Full value of wholly unused tickets can be applied toward the purchase of a fare to an alternate destination. Travel must be completed by Dec. 20. Customers traveling on certain tickets -- such as some available from third-party ticket discounters, including but not limited to discount travel websites -- may not have all elements of the policy available to them. Tickets issued by US Airways for travel on airlines other than US Airways, US Airways Shuttle or US Airways Express will follow the rules of the airline operating the flight(s). Itinerary changes are subject to availability, and in certain cases, an additional collection fee. Customers will be able to stand by for alternate flights without incurring the standby fee if a satisfactory alternate itinerary cannot be confirmed. Additional information regarding these amended ticketing policies can be found online at http://www.usairways.com or by calling 800-428-4322. (LCCG)
