Easyjet said on Monday that Peter Bellew resigned as chief operating officer on Friday 1 July to pursue other business opportunities.
David Morgan has been appointed to lead the operations function as interim COO, reporting directly into chief executive officer Johan Lundgren.

Morgan has been with easyJet since 2016, including almost a year as interim COO in 2019 when he oversaw operations, delivering “significant improvements” in operational performance during that time.

Lundgren said: “I would like to thank Peter for his hard work and wish him well. Everyone at easyJet remains absolutely focused on delivering a safe and reliable operation this summer.

“I am pleased that operations will be in the very capable hands of David Morgan who can move seamlessly into this role having previously led the operation, as interim chief operating officer, throughout 2019.

“David has significant experience and deep knowledge of the business and operation and will provide strong leadership for the airline this summer.”
