Kitty Hawk, Inc. to Cease Scheduled Network Air and Ground Operations

•

Kitty Hawk will continue to operate air cargo charter operations

Dallas, Texas, October 29, 2007 — Kitty Hawk, Inc. (AMEX: KHK) and all of its wholly-owned subsidiaries (collectively, “Kitty Hawk”) announced today that it will immediately cease all scheduled network air and ground operations. Kitty Hawk will continue to operate air cargo charter operations. Approximately 500 employees at Kitty Hawk will be affected by the ceasing of operations, and such employees were notified of their termination today.

Kitty Hawk’s financial condition has deteriorated significantly over the last year and the ceasing of network air and ground operations is necessitated by, among other things, a 25% decrease in year-over-year demand for its air product and a 15% year-over-year decrease in demand for its ground product. In conjunction with lower demand for Kitty Hawk’s services, record high jet and diesel fuel prices have contributed to Kitty Hawk’s inability to continue network air and ground operations.

On October 15, 2007, Kitty Hawk, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries filed voluntary petitions in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Fort Worth Division in a continued effort to address significant financial challenges and identify a strategic or financial investor. Kitty Hawk has been unable to secure new sources of financing or a buyer for all or a portion of its assets after considerable and continuing efforts which commenced in early 2007.

As result a result of the aforementioned, Kitty Hawk must cease its scheduled air and ground network operations, but will continue to operate its air cargo charter operations.
