Manila: The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has appointed Maunu von Lueders as Regional Vice President for Asia-Pacific based in Singapore.

A Finnish national, von Lueders has served as CEO of two international carriers, JetLite in India and Nordic Airlink/FlyNordic in Sweden. His aviation career began with Finnair where he worked until 2001 in various positions including general management, sales & marketing, commercial partnerships and international relations.
Von Lueders has also worked with the oneworld global alliance as Vice President of Sales.
“He brings extremely rich experiences in all facets of the aviation business. This will help IATA to deliver its critical agenda of industry projects in the dynamic Asia-Pacific region,” commented Giovanni Bisignani, IATA’s Director General and CEO.
“The industry’s future is being built today in Asia-Pacific and I am confident that Maunu’s leadership will ensure that IATA’s global experience continues to play an important role in the region’s development.”
