ALASKA AIR GROUP, INC.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

As of September 30, 2025, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer (collectively, our “certifying officers”), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. These disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by us in our periodic reports filed with or submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC's rules and forms, and includes, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our certifying officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our certifying officers concluded, based on their evaluation, that disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2025.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

On September 18, 2024, we acquired Hawaiian Holdings, Inc. As of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, we are making progress in further integrating Hawaiian in our evaluation of internal controls over financial reporting for the combined company. As the integration continues and business processes evolve, management will continue to evaluate the existing internal controls over financial reporting for change.

In the second quarter, Hawaiian Airlines identified a cybersecurity incident affecting certain information technology systems. As a result of this cybersecurity incident, we performed certain alternative controls and procedures, and additional compensating controls, to support management's assessment that the financial and other information included within this report is materially accurate.

Except as noted above, there have been no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended September 30, 2025 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.

Our internal control over financial reporting is based on the 2013 framework in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the COSO Framework).
