Campbell Wilson has stepped down as Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director of Air India, PTI reported, quoting a source familiar with the development.
Wilson was appointed as Air India's CEO and MD in July 2022 , following former Turkish Airlines Chairman Ilker Ayci's decision not to take up the top job in March 2022 amid a controversy.
The Tata-owned carrier has yet to issue an official statement on the matter.
Earlier reports had indicated that the group was already evaluating potential successors, with Wilson’s five-year term originally set to run until 2027.
Wilson had faced mounting scrutiny in recent months, particularly after a fatal crash involving a London-bound Air India Boeing 787-8 shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad last year, which claimed 241 lives.
