Important Reminder: MFA Notice for APA2118 Pilots
Allegiant Pilots,
Microsoft now requires multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all email accounts as part of updated security standards. To ensure uninterrupted access to your union email, all pilots using an apa2118.org/ address must have MFA enabled by March 1.

What This Means for You
- When you sign in to your APA2118 email, you will be asked to verify your identity using a second authentication method (Microsoft Authenticator app).
- If you already have MFA set up, no further action is required.
- If you have not enabled MFA, you must complete the setup before March 1 to avoid losing access to your apa2118.org/ email.
Action Required
- Confirm that you have at least one MFA method registered.
- The Microsoft Authenticator app is the recommended method.
- If you have not set up MFA yet, please follow the steps below.
- If you need assistance, feel free to reach out and I’ll be happy to help.
