Jet Airways on Friday appointed Sanjiv Kapoor as Chief executive officer (CEO) effective from April 4. The announcement was made by Jalan Kalrock Consortium. 

Kapoor, who is currently the president of Oberoi Hotels and Resorts, was previously with Indian full-service carrier Vistara and budget airline SpiceJet.

Murari Lal Jalan, lead partner of the Jalan-Kalrock Consortium and proposed non-executive chairman of Jet Airways said, “Sanjiv is a seasoned aviation professional who has the right blend and demeanour to stitch a team together.”

“I always believe in investing in human capital and by having Sanjiv as the CEO and Vipula as the CFO, I am certain Jet Airways will reclaim its lost glory and surpass everyone’s expectations.” He added.

Sanjiv Kapoor said, “I am looking forward to getting back to aviation. Even though Jet Airways has been out of operation for three years, it still has a large fan base of loyal customers who miss it every day and can’t wait for it to take to the skies again,”

Last month, the company has appointed former Sri Lankan Airlines chief executive Vipula Gunatilleka as the chief financial officer (CFO) of Jet Airways (India) Limited.
