Cathay Pacific names new Europe boss
Cathay Pacific Airways has appointed Neil Glenn as its general manager Europe.
His promotion comes from within the group. Glenn joined Cathay owner John Swire & Sons in 1990 and most recently worked in Singapore as managing director of Swire Pacific Offshore Operations.
Prior to that, he held senior positions including general manager, Logistics for John Swire & Sons in Australia, managing director of Kalari Transport in Australia, and director and general manager of Hong Kong Aero Engine.
His appointment comes at a significant time for the airline, which has expanded its presence in Europe with the addition of several new routes, including Manchester in 2014 and Zurich, Dusseldorf and Madrid in 2015.
Cathay Pacific flies from Heathrow-Hong Kong five times daily and from Manchester-Hong Kong four times per week.
