Alaska Air Group Inc. (NYSE: ALK) today will host its Investor Day at 11:30 a.m. Eastern time. During the even the company will provide an update on its business performance, growth strategy, including its pandemic recovery, industry outperformance in financial strength and guest experience, and its path forward for long-term value creation. “The people of Alaska and Horizon are the foundation of our company and their kind-hearted spirit is why travelers choose to fly with us time and again,” said Ben Minicucci, Chief Executive Officer of Alaska Air Group. “The care and industry-leading service they provide and the operational excellence they deliver have allowed us to build incredible loyalty and drive results.”
Airline of the Year
“We’re honored to be recognized by Air Transport World as the Airline of the Year – a testament to our people and to everything they’ve accomplished through the last few tumultuous years,” added Minicucci. “Throughout our history, Alaska has consistently outperformed the industry, and we’re well positioned to continue that trend, leveraging loyalty, alliances, network growth and our brand to unlock significant value and deliver $400 million of incremental revenue as part of our 2025 strategic plan. Accelerating our transition to single fleets while upgauging for growth is also a key part of that strategy. We care about growth because it enables us to create value for all who depend on us: greater opportunities for our employees, new jobs and increased service to our communities, and returns for our owners.” “Alaska’s team is committed to outperforming the industry, even while navigating a choppy pandemic recovery and near-term economic volatility,” said Shane Tackett, executive vice president finance and Chief Financial Officer of Alaska Air Group. “As people return to travel, they are choosing Alaska.
