Virgin Atlantic chief executive Steve Ridgway has confirmed he will retire from the airline in spring 2013.
|
Ridgway has been with the airline for 23 years, having initially been appointed managing director of frequent flyer programme Virgin Freeway.
He has been chief executive of the long-haul carrier since 2001.
In a statement Ridgeway said: “My time with Virgin Atlantic has been nothing short of an adventure. I have seen many great times and a few bad, and have always remained firm that we just offer something different to that of our competitors.”
Ridgway had discussed his plans to step-down with Virgin president Sir Richard Branson at the start of this year.
Branson added: “Steve will be very much involved with the airline into next year and will doubtlessly be involved in other Virgin projects as we value his skills so highly. I personally thank him for his dedication to Virgin Atlantic over the past 23 years.”
