JAKARTA (JP): British Airways and Qantas of Australia
announced on Thursday the appointment of Claire Hatton as their
Indonesia joint manager.

They said in a joint statement that Hatton, currently British
Airways' Indonesia manager, would take up the new position on
Dec. 1.

She will succeed Rick Coyle who in mid-December is due to
return to the Qantas corporate office in Sydney.

Qantas commercial manager Geoff Dixon said the joint country
manager appointment "would strengthen an already successful
alliance partnership in Indonesia".

To improve the alliance's workings, the two airlines also plan
to colocate their respective offices in Jakarta. (rid)
