Tags :Continental Europe, Air Berlin


On account of differences of opinion concerning the future strategic positioning of the technical support companies and their integration in the Air Berlin Group, the Board of Air Berlin and Wolfgang Kurth, Chief Maintenance Officer, have come to a mutual agreement, as a result of which Wolfgang Kurth is leaving the company with immediate effect.

Initially Kurth worked for the Air Berlin Group in an advisory capacity from 2006 onwards. On 1st July 2007 he took over as joint managing director of dba alongside Helmut Weixler, thereby contributing significantly to the restructuring of dba and its integration in the Air Berlin Group. Then on 1st June 2008 Wolfgang Kurth was appointed Chief Maintenance Officer at Air Berlin. During this period he laid the foundations for a process of continuous performance improvement and played a major part in making this important division more economically efficient.

Joachim Hunold, CEO of Air Berlin, would like to thank Wolfgang Kurth for the work he has undertaken and to wish him every success for the future.

Until a new person has been appointed to the post, Joachim Hunold will be acting Chief Maintenance Officer.
