Wadia Group-promoted GoAir on Friday again appointed Kaushik Khona as Chief Executive Officer in place of Vinay Dube, as the struggling budget carrier changed its CEO for the third time in less than two years.
Khona was at the helm of GoAir from April 2009 to June 2011. His appointment also comes at a time when the carrier is facing strong headwinds in business, mainly due to slump in passenger demand and flight operations being hit by the coronavirus pandemic.
A qualified resolution professional and an independent director, Khona has more than 32 years of corporate experience, according to a statement.
“Vinay Dube has ceased to be in the employment of GoAir with immediate effect and hence ceases to be the CEO of the company.
