easyJet COO resigns after flight cancellations

easyJet’s vice president of operations (COO) has resigned after the airline canceled thousands of flights to try to limit the inconvenience caused to passengers by the lack of staff in the air and on the ground.

Peter Bellew resigned on Friday to seek other opportunities, the British company said on Monday.

easyJet has appointed David Morgan, who has been with the airline since 2016 as interim COO, reporting directly to Chief Executive Johan Lundgren.

“Everyone at easyJet remains absolutely focused on providing safe and reliable operation this summer,” said Lundgren, who thanked Bellew for his hard work.

“David has significant experience and deep knowledge of the business and operations and will provide strong leadership for the airline this summer.”

easyJet shares closed down 4.4%.
