Swiss board of directors: Bhat succeeds Foerster

There has been a change in the board of directors of the airline Swiss. Ashwin Bhat, Chief Commercial Officer of Lufthansa Cargo, succeeds Christina Foerster, who is currently acting ad-interim as Head of Brussels Airlines.

Although Foerster has left the Swiss Board of Directors, he will continue to be a member of the Executive Board of the Lufthansa Group. "On behalf of the entire Board of Directors, I would like to thank Christina Foerster for her great work, her unrestricted commitment and her great commitment to our SWISS. SWISS and the Board of Directors were able to rely on their expertise and reliable judgment at all times, and not just during the difficult times of the pandemic. We are pleased that the Lufthansa Group can continue to count on their valuable know-how in the future,” says Reto Francioni, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Swiss.

The committee now consists of Reto Francioni (President), Doris Russi Schurter, André Blattmann, Remco Steenbergen and the new member Ashwin Bhat.
