Garuda Set to Replace Head of Low Cost Unit in Push for Recovery
Indonesian flag carrier PT Garuda Indonesia is planning to replace the head of its low cost unit, PT Citilink Indonesia, in an effort to boost profitability and recover from the fallout of the pandemic and subsequent debt restructuring.
Darsito Hendro Seputro, a former executive at Thai Lion Air, is a leading candidate for the role, according to people familiar with the matter, who asked not to be identified because they're not authorized to speak publicly. He would take over the position currently held by Dewa Kadek Rai, who has worked at Garuda since the early 1990s and was appointed Citilink chief executive officer in 2022.
