ATPCO praised Zoghlin, saying he is departing "after five years of transformative leadership, during which he championed innovation, advanced standards in airline pricing and strengthened the company's role as a neutral partner driving the industry forward."
CFO Vince Palmiere will be appointed interim CEO while ATPCO's board begins a CEO search.
Zoghlin said, "Leading ATPCO has been one of the greatest honors of my career. I am incredibly proud of the work our team has accomplished together, and I deeply believe in ATPCO's mission to enable smarter, faster, and more accurate travel offers across the airline industry, while the industry exists between filed fares and dynamic offers. Although it's time for me to take on a new challenge, I will always be a supporter of ATPCO and the important role it plays in aviation."
Zoghlin was the first employee at Orbitz, serving as chief technology officer when the OTA was founded in 2001. Later in the decade, he founded G2 SwitchWorks, an alternative GDS whose assets were eventually acquired by Travelport.
