So pre-Christmas press reports are true: James Hogan, the authoritarian chief of Etihad, is set to leave in the second half of 2017. He takes CFO James Rigney with him to an unnamed investment company.
The move comes following concern over the carrier’s strategy and investments in Europe, in particular at Air Berlin and Alitalia. Job losses are expected at the Abu Dhabi carrier. You can read the carrier’s press statement here.
