PETER BELLEW TO JOIN RYANAIR AS CHIEF OPERATIONS
OFFICER
Ryanair
today (17 Oct) announced that Peter Bellew would re-join Ryanair as
Chief Operations Officer. Mr. Bellew who is currently the CEO of
Malaysia Airlines will take over responsibility for all Ryanair's
flight operations, ground operations and engineering but with a
specific responsibility for pilot production, training and career
development with a mission to ensure that the pilot rostering
failure which Ryanair suffered in early September will never be
repeated.
Mr.
Bellew, who previously worked in Ryanair until 2014, latterly as
Director Flight Operations, will join the Ryanair team in Dublin
from Friday 1st December
next.
Ryanair's Michael O'Leary said:
"We are pleased to welcome Peter back to
Ryanair. Having worked previously in a senior role in our
Operations team, Peter has an unrivalled knowledge of our business
model and how we maintain controlled growth, with industry leading
punctuality, for the benefit of our customers and our people. Peter
will lead a significant transformation in the way we reward and
interact with our pilots, improve their working environment and
career development over the coming years as we grow the fleet to
some 600 aircraft and expand our traffic, at lower fares, to 200m
customers p.a."
Peter Bellew said:
"I am excited to return home to Ryanair and
take up the challenge to grow the operation sustainably. I look
forward to working with all the team and all the crews I know so
well to further develop our growth to 600 aircraft over the next 6
years."
