Sudden departure of two BA directors after T5 disaster
British Airways has announced that Gareth Kirkwood, director of operations, and David Noyes, director of customer services, will be leaving the company.
The airline said the departures follow the airline’s move to London Heathrow’s new Terminal 5.
The opening of T5 last month was plagued with problems and has forced the airline to delay moving other flights to the new facility.
BA said it was now looking to appoint a chief operations officer to combine both roles.
A spokesman said the airline did not have any intention of making any announcements about further departures of BA directors today, nor in the not too distant future.
