About Us

Founded in 2021 by Alexander Sodha, FlyWithAlexander was a small virtual airline finding its identity. From flying in the Pacific Northwest, to the East Coast, Europe, Asia, and beyond. Founded mostly upon boredom during the COVID-19 pandemic, the airline massed a small community of pilots and we saw an opportunity for growth.

Following two years of growth and success, the airline rebranded in 2023 following a retirement group flight to Victorville, California. Pacific Northwest was born. The rebrand brought opportunities to expand, not in location, but in presence. PNW became a VATSIM partner airline the same year, being, and continuing to be the only VATSIM partner airline to focus on the Pacific Northwest region of the United States.

Since then, our community has flown over 2.5 million miles, and flown over 3,000 flights under the Pacific Northwest name. Today, our network spans from the East Coast, to Alaska, with our little Pacific Northwest remaining our home for all PNW aircraft.
