McGee Air Services Names Ben Reed President After Interim Term

Seattle – September 25, 2026 -- McGee Air Services has elected Ben Reed as President, effective Oct. 1, formalizing a role he has held on an interim basis for six months. Reed will oversee more than 3,200 employees managing ground services for Alaska Airlines' subsidiary across six airports.

Reed takes permanent control after six-month interim tenure

Reed was named interim President in March 2026 following his prior stint as managing director of operations at McGee's Seattle station, a post he held from November 2025 until his interim appointment. The board's decision converts that interim mandate into a full presidency starting Oct. 1, 2026.
