ALA Asociación Líneas Aéreas

ALA is Spain’s leading association for the airline industry, established in 1952 to represent and strengthen air transport. It brings together nearly 60 national and international airlines across different business models, including the ten airlines with the highest traffic in Spain. Its members account for 85% of the country’s air traffic and, in 2025, carried more than 273 million passengers, operated over 2.3 million take-offs and landings, and transported more than 1.166 million tonnes of cargo.

The association represents and defends its members’ interests before public authorities, institutions and other industry stakeholders. It also advises airlines and works collaboratively to support a safer, higher-quality, more efficient, sustainable and competitive aviation sector. ALA promotes coordination across the industry and seeks to help develop an aviation model that responds to current needs. Its website shares sector news, updates and events, and provides information about its committees, members and sustainability initiatives. Through this work, ALA aims to reinforce aviation’s role in Spain’s economy and tourism while supporting connectivity between destinations.
