Surf to Summit 2025 Tour
The Alaska and Hawaiian MECs hosted the Surf to Summit Tour during the summer of 2025, organizing 19 events across key cities—from the Pacific Northwest to Southern California, the Hawaiian Islands, and Alaska.
These casual, family-friendly gatherings gave Alaska and Hawaiian pilots and their families the opportunity to connect with one another, build unity across both pilot groups, and engage directly with key union volunteers, including members of the Joint Negotiating Committee. Pilots were able to share input, ask questions, and receive important updates on the merger and ongoing negotiations.
More than 165 families—totaling over 400 attendees participated in these vital unity events. The Surf to Summit RV traveled over 3,500 miles to reach pilot communities and strengthen connections across the network. A heartfelt thank-you goes out to every volunteer who made these events possible and to every pilot and family member who showed up, spoke up, and stood together in support of a stronger, united future.
