Alaska Airlines Pilots

Air Line Pilots Association, International (ALPA) represents and advocates for more than 59,000 pilots at 33 U.S. and Canadian airlines, making it the world’s largest airline pilot union. Our mission is to promote and champion all aspects of aviation safety throughout all segments of the aviation community; to represent, in both specific and general respects, the collective interests of all pilots in commercial aviation. 

The Alaska Airlines Master Executive Council (ALA MEC) of the Air Line Pilots Association, International is the governing body that represents approximately 3,000 Alaska Airlines pilots. The MEC and its committees work with ALPA’s professional staff work to protect and advance the careers of Alaska pilots. The MEC’s mission is to improve and protect the wages, benefits, work rules, and job security of all Alaska Airlines pilots.
