1997 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
                                OF
                     US AIRWAYS GROUP, INC.
        (AS AMENDED AND RESTATED AS OF MAY 23, 2000)


           1.     PURPOSE.  The purpose of this Stock Incentive
Plan is to advance the interests of the Corporation by
encouraging the acquisition of a larger personal proprietary
interest in the Corporation by key employees of the Corporation
and of its Subsidiaries upon whose judgment and dedication the
Corporation is largely dependent for the successful conduct of
its business.  It is anticipated that the acquisition of such
proprietary interest in the Corporation will stimulate the
efforts of such key employees on behalf of the Corporation and
strengthen their desire to remain with the Corporation or its
Subsidiaries and that the opportunity to acquire such a
proprietary interest will enable the Corporation and its
Subsidiaries to attract and retain desirable personnel.

           2.    DEFINITIONS.  When used in this Plan, unless the
context otherwise requires:

   (a)    "Affiliate" shall mean a person or entity
          that directly, or indirectly through
          one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled
          by, or is under common control with, the Corporation.

   (b)    "Board" shall mean the Board of Directors of the
          Corporation.

   (c)    "Cause" shall mean an act or acts of personal
          dishonesty taken by optionee and intended to result in
          substantial personal enrichment at the expense of
          the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries or the
          conviction of optionee of a felony.

   (d)    "Change of Control" shall mean:

              (i)  The acquisition by any individual, entity or
           group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or
           14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act) of beneficial
           ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3
           promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of
           either (A) the then outstanding shares of common stock
           of the Corporation (the "Outstanding Group Common
           Stock") or (B) the combined voting power of the then
           outstanding voting securities of the Corporation
           entitled to vote generally in the election of
           directors (the "Outstanding Group Voting Securities");
           provided, however, that the following acquisitions
           shall not constitute a Change of Control:  (w) any
           acquisition directly from the Corporation, (x) any
           acquisition by the Corporation or any of its
           Subsidiaries, (y) any acquisition by any employee
           benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or
           maintained by the Corporation or any of its
           Subsidiaries, or (z) any acquisition by any
           corporation with respect to which, following such
           acquisition, more than 85% of, respectively, the then
           outstanding shares of common stock of such corporation
           and the combined voting power of the then outstanding
           voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote
           generally in the election of directors is then
           beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or
           substantially all of the individuals and entities who
           were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the
           Outstanding Group Common Stock and Outstanding Group
           Voting Securities immediately prior to such
           acquisition, in substantially the same
           proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to
           such acquisition, of the Outstanding Group Common
           Stock and Outstanding Group Voting Securities, as
           the case may be; or

              (ii)  Individuals who, as of the date hereof,
           constitute the Board (the "Incumbent Board") cease for
           any reason to constitute at least a majority of the
           Board; provided, however, that any individual becoming
           a director subsequent to the date hereof whose
           election, or nomination for election by the
           Corporation's shareholders, was approved by a vote of
           at least a majority of the directors then
           comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as
           though such individual were a member of the Incumbent
           Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such
           individual whose initial assumption of office occurs
           as a result of either an actual or threatened election
           contest (as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of
           Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) or
           other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or
           consents; or

              (iii)  Consummation of a reorganization, merger or
           consolidation, in each case, with respect to which all
           or substantially all of the individuals and
           entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively,
           of the Outstanding Group Common Stock and Outstanding
           Group Voting Securities immediately prior to
           such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not
           following such reorganization, merger or
           consolidation, beneficially own, directly or
           indirectly, more than 85% of, respectively, the then
           outstanding shares of common stock and the combined
           voting power of the then outstanding voting securities
           entitled to vote generally in the election of
           directors, as the case may be, of the corporation
           resulting from such reorganization, merger or
           consolidation in

                                 2

           substantially the same proportions as
           their ownership, immediately prior to such
           reorganization, merger or consolidation of the
           Outstanding Group Common Stock and Outstanding Group
           Voting Securities, as the case may be; or

              (iv)  Approval by the shareholders of the
           Corporation of (x) a complete liquidation or
           dissolution of the Corporation or (y) the sale or
           other disposition of all or substantially all of the
           assets of the Corporation, other than to
           a corporation, with respect to which following such
           sale or other disposition, more than 85% of,
           respectively, the then outstanding shares of common
           stock of such corporation and the combined voting
           power of the then outstanding voting securities of
           such corporation entitled to vote generally in the
           election of directors is then beneficially owned,
           directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of
           the individuals and entities who were the beneficial
           owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Group Common
           Stock and Outstanding Group Voting Securities
           immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in
           substantially the same proportion as their ownership,
           immediately prior to such sale or other disposition,
           of the Outstanding Group Common Stock and Outstanding
           Group Voting Securities, as the case may be; or

                (v)  The acquisition by an individual, entity or
           group of beneficial ownership of 20% or more of the
           then outstanding securities of the Corporation,
           including both voting and non-voting securities,
           provided, however, that such acquisition shall only
           constitute a change of control in the event that such
           individual, entity or group also obtains the power to
           elect by class vote, cumulative voting or otherwise to
           appoint 20% or more of the total number of directors

           New York Stock Exchange Composite Tape on the date as
           of which such value is being determined or, if there
           shall be no sale on that date, then on the last
           previous day on which a sale was reported, provided,
           however, that during the 60-day period from and after
           a Change of Control, "Fair Market Value" shall mean,
           other than in the case of Shares subject to incentive
           stock options, as defined in the Code, the higher of
           (X) the highest reported sales price, regular way, of

           "Change of Control" herein, the highest price for

         3.   ADMINISTRATION.  The Plan shall be administered by
the Committee which, unless otherwise determined by the Board,
shall consist of not less than two directors of the Corporation,

the meaning of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under Section 16(b) of the
Exchange Act) and as an "outside director" (within the meaning of
Section 162(m)(4)(c)


                                 4


of the Code).  No more than 1,500,000 Shares, which may be either
treasury Shares or authorized but unissued Shares, of the
Corporation's common stock in the aggregate, except to the extent
of adjustments authorized by Section 11 hereof, may be issued
pursuant to Options and Restricted Stock awards granted under
this Plan.  Any Shares subject to Options or Restricted Stock
awards may thereafter be subject to new grants under this Plan if
there is a lapse, expiration or termination of any such Options
or Restricted Stock awards prior to issuance of the Shares or if
Shares are issued hereunder and thereafter reacquired by the
Corporation pursuant to rights reserved by the Corporation in
connection with the issuance thereof.  No individual may be
granted Options or Restricted Stock awards with respect to more
than an aggregate of 750,000 Shares in any one calendar year.

          The Committee may authorize and establish such rules,
regulations and revisions thereof not inconsistent with the
provisions of the Plan, as it may determine advisable to make the
Plan, Options, and Restricted Stock effective or provide for
their administration, and may take such other action with regard
to the Plan, Options, and Restricted Stock as it shall deem
desirable to effectuate their purpose.  The Committee may require
that any Options granted be exercisable in installments.  A
determination of the Committee as to any questions which may
arise with respect to the interpretation of the provisions of the
Plan, Options and Restricted Stock shall be final.


          4.    PARTICIPANTS.  Options and Restricted Stock may
be granted under the Plan to any key employee of the Corporation
or any Subsidiary or to any individual in contemplation of
becoming a key employee of the Corporation or any Subsidiary;
provided, however, that neither Options nor Restricted Stock may
be granted to any individual who, at the time of grant, is an
officer of the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries.  Subject
to the preceding sentence, the individuals to whom Options and
Restricted Stock are to be offered under the Plan and the number
of Shares to be optioned and Restricted Stock to be issued to
each such individual shall be determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion, subject, however, to the terms and conditions of
the Plan.

          5.    OPTIONS.  The number of Shares to be optioned to
any eligible person shall be determined by the Committee in its
sole discretion.  The Committee shall be entitled to issue
Options at different times to the same person.  Options shall be
subject to such terms and conditions and evidenced by agreements
in such form as shall be determined from time to time by the
Chief Executive Officer, provided that the terms and conditions
of each such agreement are not inconsistent with this Plan.


                                  5



          The purchase price per Share for the Shares to be
purchased pursuant to the exercise of any Option shall be fixed
by the Committee, but shall not be less than 100% of the Fair
Market Value of the Shares on the date such Option is granted;
provided, however, for purposes of any grant of Options by the
Committee the meaning of Fair Market Value shall be as defined in
Section 2(i) hereof without regard to the proviso in such
definition.  No Option granted under the Plan shall be
exercisable after ten years and one month from the date it was
granted or such earlier date as shall be established by the
Committee in granting the Option.

          Except as otherwise provided herein, an Option shall be
exercisable by the holder at such rate and times as may be fixed
by the Committee; provided, however, upon a Change of Control,
all Options shall become immediately exercisable.  The Committee
may provide that the Option shall not be exercisable, in whole or
in part, except upon the fulfillment of specific defined
conditions.  No Option may at any time be exercised in part with
respect to fewer than 100 Shares unless fewer than 100 Shares
remain in the Option grant being exercised.

          Options shall be exercised by written notice to the
Secretary of the Corporation (or the Secretary's designated
agent) in such form as is from time to time prescribed by the
Committee and by the payment in full of the aggregate exercise
price of the Options being exercised.  Payment of the purchase
price upon exercise of any Option shall be made (A) in cash or
(B) in whole or in part, (i) in Shares valued at Fair Market
Value on the date of exercise or (ii) by electing to have the
Corporation withhold a number of shares of common stock otherwise
receivable upon exercise, the value of such withheld shares
determined by the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise;
provided, however, that during the 60-day period from and after a
Change of Control all optionees with respect to any or all of
their respective Options shall, unless the Committee shall
determine otherwise at the time of grant, have the right, in lieu
of the payment of the full option price of the Shares being
purchased under the Options and by giving written notice to the
Corporation in form satisfactory to the Committee, to elect
(within such 60-day period) to surrender all or part of the
Options to the Corporation and to receive in cash an amount equal
to the amount by which the Fair Market Value of Shares on the
date of exercise exceeds the option price per Share under the
Options multiplied by the number of Shares granted under the
Options as to which the right granted by this proviso shall have
been exercised.  Such written notice shall specify the optionee's
election to purchase Shares granted under the Options or to
receive the cash payment referred to in the proviso to the
immediately preceding sentence.

                                  6



          6.    RESTRICTED STOCK.  Subject to the terms of the
Plan, the Committee shall determine and designate the recipients
of Restricted Stock awards, the dates on which such awards are to
be granted, the number of Shares subject to such awards, and the
restrictions applicable to such awards.  Restricted Stock awards
shall be subject to such terms and conditions and evidenced by
agreements in such form as shall be determined from time to time
by the Chief Executive Officer, provided that the terms and
conditions of each such agreement are not inconsistent with this
Plan. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan or of any
agreement evidencing the grant of Restricted Stock hereunder to
the contrary, all restrictions on shares of Restricted Stock
awarded prior to May 16, 2000 shall lapse upon the consummation
of any reorganization, merger or consolidation described in
Section 2(d)(iii), irrespective of the termination of the
Participant's employment as a result of such reorganization,
merger or consolidation.

          7.   NONTRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED
STOCK.  Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, Options
and Restricted Stock shall not be transferable by the holder
thereof otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and
distribution to the extent provided herein, and Options may be
exercised during the holder's lifetime only by the holder
thereof.

          8.   TAX WITHHOLDING.  If as a result of:  (a) the
exercise of any Options or the disposition of any Shares acquired
pursuant to such exercise, or (b) the lapse of any restrictions
on the disposition of Restricted Stock, the Corporation or
Subsidiary shall be required to withhold any amounts by reason of
any Federal, state or local tax rules or regulations, the
Corporation or Subsidiary shall be entitled to deduct and
withhold such amounts from any cash payments to be made to the
holder.  In any event, the holder shall make available to the
Corporation or Subsidiary, promptly when required, sufficient
funds to meet the requirement for such withholding; and the
Committee shall be entitled to take and authorize such steps as
it may deem advisable in order to have such funds available to
the Corporation or Subsidiary when required.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the holder shall have the right to satisfy such
withholding, in whole or in part, in Shares (including by having
the Corporation withhold Shares otherwise issuable in respect of
such Options or Restricted Stock) valued at Fair Market Value on
the date of exercise or lapse of restrictions, as applicable.

          9.   TAX LIABILITY.  Subject to the Committee's
discretion, agreements between the Corporation and grantees in
connection with awards of Options or Restricted Stock may provide
for the payment by the Corporation of a supplemental cash payment
to grantees promptly after the exercise of an Option, or promptly
after the date on which the shares of Restricted Stock awarded
are included in the gross income of

                                   7


the grantee under the Code.  Such supplemental cash payments, to
the extent determined by the Committee, shall provide for the
payment of such amounts as may be necessary to result in the
grantee not having any incremental tax liability as a result of
such exercise or inclusion in grantee's gross income.  The
determination of the amount of any supplemental cash payments by
the Committee shall be conclusive.

          10.   TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.  Notwithstanding any
provision of the Plan to the contrary, (i) upon the termination
of employment of an Optionee with the Corporation and all
Subsidiaries other than for Cause, the optionee (or the
optionee's estate in the event of the optionee's death) shall
have the privilege of exercising any unexercised Options which
the optionee could have exercised at the time of such termination
of employment at any time until the end of six months following
such termination of employment and (ii) upon the termination of
employment of an optionee with the Corporation and all
Subsidiaries for Cause, all unexercised Options of such optionee
shall terminate ten days after such termination of employment.

          The Committee may permit individual exceptions to the
requirements of this section by extending the period in which
Options may be exercised, provided, however, that no Options may
be extended past the earlier to occur of (i) their expiration
date or (ii) three years following termination of employment.

          11.   ADJUSTMENT OF OPTIONED SHARES.  If prior to the
complete exercise of any Option there shall be declared and paid
a stock dividend upon the Shares of the Corporation or if the
Shares shall be split-up, converted, reclassified, or changed
into, or exchanged for, a different number or kind of securities
of the Corporation, the Option, to the extent that it has not
been exercised, shall entitle the holder upon the future exercise
of such Option to such number and kind of securities or other
property subject to the terms of the Option to which he would be
entitled had he actually owned the Shares subject to the
unexercised portion of the Option at the time of the occurrence
of such stock dividend, split-up, conversion, reclassification,
change or exchange; and the aggregate purchase price upon the
future exercise of the Option shall be the same as if originally
optioned Shares were being purchased thereunder.  If any such
event should occur, the number of Shares with respect to which
Options remain to be issued, or with respect to which Options may
be reissued, shall be similarly adjusted.

          In the event the outstanding Shares shall be changed
into or exchanged for any other class or series of capital stock
or cash, securities or other property pursuant to a
recapitalization, reclassification, merger, consolidation,
combination or similar transaction, then each Option shall
thereafter become exercisable for the number and/or kind of
capital stock, and/or the amount of cash, securities or other
property so

                                 8


distributed, into which the Shares subject to the Option would
have been changed or exchanged had the Option been exercised in
full prior to such transaction, provided that, if the kind or
amount of capital stock or cash, securities or other property
received in such transaction is not the same for each outstanding
Share, then the kind or amount of capital stock or cash,
securities or other property for which the Option shall
thereafter become exercisable shall be the kind and amount so
receivable per Share by a plurality of the Shares, and provided
further that, if necessary, the provisions of the Option shall be
appropriately adjusted so as to be applicable, as nearly as may
reasonably be, to any shares of capital stock, cash, securities
or other property thereafter issuable or deliverable upon
exercise of the Option.

          12.   ISSUANCE OF SHARES AND COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES
ACT.  The Corporation may postpone the issuance and delivery of
Shares upon any exercise of an Option, or upon any lapsing of
restriction on any shares of Restricted Stock until (a) the
admission of such Shares to listing on any stock exchange on
which Shares are then listed and (b) the completion of such
registration or other qualification of such Shares under any
state or Federal law, rule or regulation as the Corporation shall
determine to be necessary or advisable.  Any person exercising an
Option and any grantee of Restricted Stock shall make such
representations and furnish such information as may, in the
opinion of counsel for the Corporation, be appropriate to permit
the Corporation, in light of the then existence or nonexistence
with respect to such Shares of an effective registration
statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as from time to time
amended, to issue the Shares in compliance with the provisions of
that or any comparable act.

          13.   AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.  The Committee may at any
time discontinue the Plan or the grant of any additional Options
or Restricted Stock under the Plan.  Except as hereinafter
provided, the Committee may from time to time amend the Plan and
the terms and conditions of any Options or Restricted Stock not
theretofore issued, and the Committee, with the consent of the
affected holder of an Option or Restricted Stock, may at any time
withdraw or from time to time amend the Plan and the terms and
conditions of such Option or Restricted Stock as have been
theretofore granted.

          14.   EFFECTIVENESS AND TERM OF THE PLAN.  The Plan
shall become effective and in full force and effect upon its
approval by the Board and, unless sooner terminated by the
Committee pursuant to Section 13 hereof, the Plan shall terminate
on the date ten years after such approval.  No Option or
Restricted Stock may be granted or awarded after termination of
the Plan.  Termination of the Plan shall not affect the validity
of any Option or Restricted Stock outstanding on the date of such
termination.
