Flair Airlines has named a familiar face as its CEO: Maciej Wilk. Wilk has served as interim CEO for the last year, replacing former CEO Stephen Jones, who retired last June.
“People kept asking if we were still looking. The truth is, we had looked — and it turned out our best candidate was already doing the job,” says Jim Young, Chair of Flair Airlines’ Board, in regards to the search for a replacement.
“Maciej has spent the past year steering through weather disruptions, organizational shifts, and economic headwinds, all while sharpening our focus on reliability, affordability, and performance,” Young said.
Under Wilk, Flair introduced its “On Time Guarantee,” which offers passengers a voucher in the event of an extended delay, as well as its ImmFly integration and Flair FWD enhanced customer experience.
Wilk worked previously at PriceWaterhouseCoopers and before that at LOT Airlines in Poland.
“I’m thrilled to make it official,” stated Wilk. “The title may be new, but the work and the mission haven’t changed. I believe in Flair, and I believe Canadians deserve air travel that’s efficient, accountable, and affordable for all. The past 12 months prove that it can be done, and we’re just getting started.”
