Aaron Alter, the Chief Legal Officer of Hawaiian Airlines, has resigned following the airline’s $1.9 billion acquisition by Alaska Airlines. The acquisition, completed recently, also saw the departure of two other senior executives. Alter’s tenure with Hawaiian Airlines began in 2015, after his long-term role as outside counsel from the Palo Alto, California office of Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, where he served for 25 years.
With deep roots in Hawaii Kai, O’ahu, Alter’s exit follows nearly a decade of navigating legal landscapes for the Honolulu-based carrier. His next steps remain undisclosed as of now, but his legal expertise and extensive experience in aviation law suggest a potentially smooth transition to future endeavors. More details can be found in the official filing (SEC filing).
