Airline Dispatchers Federation

A great moment in aviation this week. Southwest Dispatcher Dylan helped coordinate a tribute for a pilot’s father, whose retirement flight was canceled, and created a memory that family will never forget. Dispatchers shape these moments every day. ADF is proud of you, Dylan! ✈️💙

The ACARS from Spirit Dispatcher Wes is resonating across the industry. It is a reminder of the pride and professionalism dispatchers bring to every flight. ADF stands with the Spirit dispatch team. Your work mattered then, it matters now, and our community has your back. ✈️💛
