PHOENIX, March 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mesa Air Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: MESA) today announced it has been named in Forbes’ list of America’s Best Midsize Employers for 2021.

It is Mesa’s first time on the list and as the only regional airline, it shows the resilience of the company during one of the toughest years yet. “We are excited to be recognized by Forbes as one of the best midsize employers, especially given the impact COVID has had on our industry and business,” said Jonathan Ornstein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “We hope to continue this momentum and remain at the top of our class.”

Forbes partnered with Statista to select America's Best Employers 2021 through an independent survey from a vast sample of more than 50,000 American employees working for large or midsize companies. Survey participants were asked to anonymously rate their willingness to recommend their own employers to friends and family.
