A Goodreads user asked Stuart Gibbs:

How do you view Alexander Hale? I feel like he gets a lot of disdain, but I find myself liking him. He’s endearing and charming - yes, he’s a fraud with mostly everything, but that scene in SS7 on the plane with Ben brought tears to my eyes - does he really care about Ben and Erica and Catherine? Also, thanks for having him fly that plane. I was very excited. Love your books. So excited for SS8!

Stuart Gibbs I like Alexander a lot. That scene on the plane was designed to give us a little more background into why he behaves the way he does. He definitely cares deeply about Ben, Erica and Catherine.
