Word on the street is that he is a decent and knowledgable chap. Best of luck!
Unless he can persuade SRB to allow him to end the "**** BA" policy, all that talent will be wasted on a airline that can barely compete with BA, let along their rivals overseas
If I was the CEO of DL, this is what would have happened the mourning after the deal with VS:
New Virgin CEO has been announced.
Mr Craig Kreeger - ex AA Senior VP
BALHR
Your thoughts Sir - then again......................
While I think he will do alright for the job, I don think him coming from AA would be good for VS creditability...
Anyway he faces a very hard task in having to deal with SRB, after all VS's business plan is based on his passion, ego and stubbornness (not that its a bad airline...), if it is going to work for him, he should abandon the VS-DL deal (while telling them to buy out his former employer before they make a massive mistake in merging with US) and instead form a "partnership" with BA, otherwise he would end up trying (unsuccessfully) save a sinking ship
