I understand the play to be that A1 was dribbling down the lane, then ends the dribble and/(while) jumps/(ing) for a shot, but then decides while in the air to pass the ball back out. A1 is then the first player to touch this pass.
After some thought, I believe that A1 has committed both a traveling violation and a double dribble violation. So either call is correct.
If the pass hit the floor before A1 retreived it, then this can be considered a dribble. 4-15-3. Since A1 has already dribbled before jumping this is a second dribble. 9-5
It is also a traveling violation for starting a dribble with the pivot foot off the floor. 4-43-3c
If the pass never hit the floor, then A1 has only traveled.
Lastly, if A1 somehow was able to penetrate the lane without dribbling and then does this, it is only a travel.
