New era at Iberia and Vueling: Marco Sansavini and Carolina Martinoli take the helm

03-03-24

The aviation conglomerate International Airlines Group (IAG) has announced a significant change in the management of its two flagship airlines in Spain: Iberia and Vueling. In a strategic move that underscores the company's commitment to internal leadership, Marco Sansavini assumes the presidency and executive management of Iberia, while Carolina Martinoli takes the helm of Vueling, marking a new chapter for both entities.

Marco Sansavini, whose career at Vueling as president and CEO has been marked by notable achievements, takes over from Fernando Candela at Iberia. Candela, who held the position on an interim basis from May 2023, returns to his previous responsibilities as CEO at LEVEL, another airline within the IAG conglomerate. 

Sansavini's experience and vision in the aeronautical sector are anticipated as a refreshing boost for Iberia, with the aim of consolidating its strategic position and expanding its presence in international markets, especially on transatlantic routes between Latin America and Europe.
