Regional airline SkyWest Airlines is suing two of its former pilots, alleging they hacked into the company’s internal computer system and extracted the private personal information of thousands of coworkers in an effort to unionize fellow pilots.
The complaint, filed in U.S. District Court in Utah, alleges that former SkyWest pilots Daniel Moussaron and Vikaas Krithivas accessed protected portions of the airline’s internal employee portal and extracted personal data, including home addresses and cellphone numbers, belonging to nearly 5,000 pilots and flight attendants.
According to SkyWest, the access occurred between August and December 2025 through the company’s internal SkyWest Online (SWOL) system, a portal used by employees for scheduling, payroll, and company communications.
