Qatar exec departure could clear the air for fresh landing rights bid
Qatar Airways’ outgoing chief executive is no stranger to controversy, having built the airline into a globally significant force during his lengthy tenure.
Qatar Airways’ outspoken chief executive, Akbar Al Baker, will leave the airline after 27 years, sparking hopes that his replacement could strike a more conciliatory tone in Canberra.
Badr Mohammed Al-Meer was named as Mr Al Baker’s successor from November 5.
