Hawaiian Airlines has appointed Stephen Simmons
to the new position of managing director of operations planning
and scheduling.
Simmons’ position was created to provide
additional management support to Hawaiian’s flight operations as
the company continues to implement its strategic growth plan. One
of his key responsibilities is developing operational strategies
to ensure an effective utilization of Hawaiian’s flight crews.
“Hawaiian’s route network will continue to grow
significantly in the coming years and Stephen’s expertise at
managing the utilization of flight crews will be tremendously
useful in keeping our operations efficient and customer-focused,”
said Charles Nardello, Hawaiian’s senior vice president of
operations.
Simmons brings more than 30 years of airline
management experience to Hawaiian. Most recently he worked for two
years as an independent aviation consultant for several domestic
and international carriers.
Before that Simmons worked at Northwest Airlines
for 16 years in director and managing director positions,
primarily in the area of crew operations and staffing. He also
accrued 12 years of experience at Pan American World Airways
serving in manager and director level positions for inflight
services and labor relations.
Simmons holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in
sociology from the University of Florida.
