Emirates appoints Nick Rees as Country Manager - Singapore and Brunei

Dubai-based Emirates Airline has appointed Mr. Nick Rees as its new Country Manager for Singapore and Brunei.

Mr. Rees succeeds Mr. Stephen Chu, formerly Emirates’ Area Manager for Singapore and Brunei, who retired after 17 years of service with the airline.

Mr Rees, who previously headed the operations of Emirates in Greece, is tasked with overseeing all aspects of the airline’s operations in Singapore.

Mr Rees, who joined Emirates in 1999, has contributed extensively to the growth of Emirates’ UK operations as well as the launch of Emirates’ first services to North America. In 2005, he took on the position of Country Manager for Greece where he oversaw a rapid expansion of the airline’s capacity.

Mr. Richard Jewsbury, Emirates’ Senior Vice President, Commercial Operations, Far East and Australasia, said, “Singapore is an extremely important destination on the Emirates network and with Nick’s passion and business acumen, we are confident that he will lead the team in bringing the Singapore operations to greater heights.”

Nick Rees holds a degree in Economics from Bristol University, UK and is married with two children.
