ITEM 9. REGULATION FD DISCLOSURE.

In recent press  announcements,  ATA Holdings  Corp.,  the parent company of ATA
Airlines  Inc.  (the  "Company"),  has  disclosed  that its cockpit  crewmembers
represented by the Air Line Pilots  Association  (ALPA) have ratified Letters of
Agreement  which  amend  the  existing  collective  bargaining  agreement.   The
amendments,  which  became  effective  July  1,  2004,  will  save  the  company
approximately $43 million over the next two years.

"We are extremely  proud of our strong  relationship  between our employee labor
unions and management," said George Mikelsons, ATA Chairman and CEO.

"ATA is very pleased with the outcome of this  negotiation  and, in  particular,
with the speed in which the  negotiation  was completed.  Several other carriers
have been in concessionary discussions for months, if not years, and have yet to
obtain an agreement. Our whole process was completed in 75 days, which speaks to
the tremendous commitment our cockpit crewmembers share with all ATA employees."

A new  contract  amendable  date  extends the terms of the cockpit  crewmembers'
current  agreement by one year, to 2007. In addition,  the amendment  includes a
new  competitive  pay scale for a  proposed  110-seat  aircraft  the  Company is
contemplating acquiring in the next 12 months.

Caution  Concerning  Forward-Looking  Statements:  This  communication  contains
certain "forward-looking statements." These statements are based on ATA Holdings
Corp.'s   management's   current  expectations  and  are  naturally  subject  to
uncertainty  and changes in  circumstances.  Except to the extent required under
the federal  securities  laws, ATA Holdings Corp. is not under any obligation to
(and  expressly   disclaims  any  such   obligation  to)  update  or  alter  its
forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events
or otherwise.
