Delta COO Mike Spanos to Depart August 31

News summary

Delta Air Lines COO Mike Spanos will leave the company on August 31, 2024, after just over a year in the position. Spanos' departure comes weeks after a massive tech outage caused by a CrowdStrike software malfunction led to the cancellation of 7,000 Delta flights, costing the airline an estimated $500 million. Delta CEO Ed Bastian stated that Spanos had considered leaving the company earlier this summer, before the outage occurred. Delta does not plan to replace Spanos; instead, executives John Laughter and Allison Ausband will now report directly to Bastian. Spanos, who previously held leadership roles at PepsiCo and Six Flags, will move to a new role at another company, although details of his next position have not been disclosed.
