Emirates promoted two senior executives to deputy roles under President Tim Clark, setting up a competition between the company veterans to succeed the 74-year-old Briton who has led the Dubai-based airline for two decades.
Chief Operations Officer Adel Al Redha and Chief Commercial Officer Adnan Kazim, both Emirati nationals who have spent decades at the company, each took on the added role of deputy president at the world’s largest long-haul airline, Emirates said Thursday in a statement.
