Angus Clarke has advised Air France-KLM that he will step down from his position as executive vice president and chief commercial officer.
He will leave Air France-KLM from 31 August 2025 with the intention of taking up a new position outside the airline later in the year, the company said.
Benjamin Smith, CEO of Air France-KLM, said: “Angus indicated to me that he felt the time was right for him to take on a new challenge and that the areas for which he has been responsible over the past six years are in good shape for the next executive who will occupy the chief commercial officer position.
“Amongst many projects, I would like to personally thank Angus for his significant contribution to the transformation of the Air France-KLM fleet, with specific reference to his direct involvement in committing the group to up to 99 widebody aircraft and close to 200 narrowbody aircraft.
“These orders form the backbone of the future fleet plans of Air France, KLM and Transavia.
“Angus has also been highly active on many other projects including aircraft cabin redesign, network planning, Blue Skies Joint Venture modernisation and most recently, the commitment to a new order-based passenger service system being Amadeus Nevio.”
“I wish Angus well in his future endeavors and thank him for his service to Air France-KLM.”
Angus Clarke said: “It has been a pleasure and an honour to work for one of the world’s leading airline groups and serve on its executive committee.
“I would also like to personally thank Ben for the opportunity to work alongside him at Air France-KLM for the past six years.”
