Our Call Sign

Air traffic controllers use call signs to identify and communicate with the flight crew of a single aircraft. It’s important to differentiate aircraft in a crowded sky at large airports.

When it was time to choose a call sign, we wanted to recognize and reinforce our team’s culture and values.
