Alaska Air Group, Inc. ("Air Group" or the "Company") is a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1985. Air Group operated three airlines, Alaska Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, and Horizon Air, through October 29, 2025. On that date, Alaska Airlines' and Hawaiian Airlines' operations were combined under Alaska's Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) operating certificate. Hawaiian Airlines is preserved as a distinct brand, providing a unique guest experience to guests traveling to, from, or within the Hawaiian Islands. Alaska Airlines was organized in 1932 and incorporated in 1937 in the state of Alaska. Hawaiian Airlines was originally incorporated in 1929 in the Territory of Hawai'i, and has been a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. since 2005. Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. was acquired by Air Group in 2024. Horizon Air is a Washington corporation that was incorporated and began service in 1981, and was acquired by Air Group in 1986. Air Group acquired Virgin America in 2016, then legally merged the entity with Alaska in 2018, at which time the airlines' operating certificates were also combined. The Company also includes McGee Air Services, an aviation services provider that was established as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Alaska in 2016, and other subsidiaries.
