Qatar Airways Cargo has appointed Mark Drusch as its chief officer cargo to replace Guillaume Halleux who left the role in September last year.
The carrier said that Drusch, described as a "well-known figure in the aviation world" would take up the role at the world's largest cargo airline immediately.
He has more than 25 years in senior airline management roles, most recently as senior vice president revenue management, alliances and strategy at Qatar Airways where he led the development and implementation of the company’s revenue strategy as well as managing strategic alliances with key partner airlines.
He also spent 20 years at Delta Air Lines, Continental Airlines and Lufthansa LSG Sky Chefs as senior vice president where he led the transformation in commercial airline strategy execution, revenue management, network planning and alliances.
He was also the co-founder of e-Rewards and e-Miles, leaders in online panel research and online advertising.”
Although he has not worked directly in a cargo role, Drusch's position at Delta Air Lines did involve working with the airline's cargo team on new market planning, scheduling, and pricing policies.
Halleux left the carrier in September to become chief commercial officer and member of the executive leadership team at Swissport.
