Air India chief executive Campbell Wilson has resigned, the airline said Tuesday, adding fresh un‑ certainty to a carrier strug‑ gling with rising costs and a string of safety‑related incidents.
New Zealand‑born Wil‑ son, appointed in 2022 after the Tata Group took over the loss‑making former state carrier, left before the end of his five-year term but will remain in charge until a successor is appointed, Air India said in a statement.
Wilson had informed group chairman N. Chan‑ drasekaran in 2024 of his intention to step down this year and had been prepar‑ ing the organisation for a smooth transition, the air‑ line said.
“Campbell and his team have demonstrated tenacity and resolve and have aligned an organization drawn from many back‑ grounds behind the shared goal of building the new Air India that is now emerging,” Chandrasekaran said.
A committee has been formed to select a new CEO “in the coming months”, the statement added.
