(Reuters) – Flybe Ltd said on Tuesday Chief Executive Officer Christine Ourmières-Widener would step down on July 15, months after the sale of the low-cost airline to a consortium including Richard Branson.
Flybe, Europe’s largest regional airline, was bought by a consortium of Virgin Atlantic, Stobart Group and Cyrus Capital this year.
