Sun Country Airlines CEO ousted

Sunday, 06 Jul, 2017 0

Sun Country Airlines CEO and president, Zarir Erani has been relieved of his position with Marty Davis, chairman of the parent company taking over on an interim basis.

Addressing the airline’s employees in an internal memo, Davis said Sun Country is ‘very close’ to announcing a successor to Erani.

Sun Country is owned by the Davis family and Erani will take a technology-based position in one of the family’s other Minnesota based companies, according to a report published by the Star Tribune.

 "Mr. Erani is a first-class gentleman and very well-regarded both by myself and our entire board, and, I’m sure, by any of those at SCA that have worked directly with him," Davis said in the memo.

Sun Country is the third-largest carrier at Minneapolis-St. Paul but operating income declined 41% in 2016.
