In addition to these achievements, Alaska Air Group is a Fortune 500 company and consistently ranks among the nation’s most profitable airlines.

Before joining Alaska, Tilden spent eight years with accounting firm Price Waterhouse. He earned a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Pacific Lutheran University and an executive master’s degree in business administration from the University of Washington.

Tilden has been ranked among the Top 50 Corporate Leaders in America by Fortune magazine, named Executive of the Year by the Puget Sound Business Journal and honored by the Boy Scouts of America as a Distinguished Eagle Scout.

Tilden serves on the boards of the Washington Roundtable, the Boy Scouts of America, Nordstrom and Airlines for America. Additionally, he chairs the board of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce.
