The oneworld alliance has appointed Loren Neuenschwander to the role of vice president, membership.
Neuenschwander spent 28 years with Delta Air Lines and joins the alliance most recently from the Boston Consulting Group.
“Loren brings a wealth of experience and a deep understanding of the airline industry’s complexities and opportunities across both developed and emerging markets,” said Nat Pieper, oneworld CEO.
Pieper added: “His strategic insight and leadership will be invaluable as we continue to strengthen our alliance and deliver value to our member airlines and customers.”
In his new role, Neuenschwander will oversee the integration of Fiji Airways and Oman Air as full members of the aircraft alliance and will promote oneworld’s sustainability initiatives.
Neuenschwander’s appointment is part of a broader organisational change at oneworld, aimed at streamlining key areas of responsibility.
As part of these changes, Elise Zealand has been re-appointed to her current role of vice president, legal, HR and compliance, Nicholas Melfi as vice president, finance and administration, and Gerhard Girkinger as vice president, customer experience and airports.
