Alaska Airlines appoints Toni Freeberg as managing director of sales

Alaska Airlines appoints 34-year airline veteran Toni Freeberg to lead sales.

Alaska Airlines has named 34-year airline veteran Toni Freeberg managing director of sales effective immediately.

Freeberg assumes the role currently held by Mark Bocchi, who will retire from Alaska Airlines in October after 40 years.

In her new role, Freeberg will set the strategy and oversee corporate and specialty sales, and further champion the integration into the oneworld global alliance.

As managing director of sales, she will drive our West Coast international initiatives and corporate partners, travel management companies and small business programs.

Additionally, she’ll work with our airline and corporate customers to create partnerships that reduce the climate impact of corporate business travel.

“On behalf of the entire commercial team, I’d like to thank Mark for his countless contributions to Alaska Airlines and Horizon Air over the past four decades,” said Andrew Harrison, Alaska Airlines chief commercial officer.

“Toni’s extensive airline experience and expertise managing complex business initiatives during both the Virgin America integration and Alaska’s entry into oneworld, make her incredibly well suited to lead our sales organization.

“Likewise, her decade+ of corporate sales leadership will help us unlock the value of oneworld and our West Coast International Alliance with American Airlines and deepen our partnerships with travel management companies at a transformational time for the airline.”

Freeberg is the recipient of Alaska Airlines highest honor – the Customer Service Legend Award.

Nominated by their peers, Legends personify the company’s values of spirit, resourcefulness, integrity, professionalism and care.
