The board of Norwegian Air Shuttle ASA has started looking for someone who might be able to replace Bjorn Kjos as chief executive officer when the 72-year-old steps down, according to a report in Nettavisen.
Nettavisen said Kjos feels he has been running on “overtime†and that he hopes he won’t still be CEO three years from now.
Potential successors include Hurtigruten Group ASA CEO Daniel Skjeldam, as well as Kjos’s daughter and pilot, Anna Helene Kjos, Nettavisen said.
Kjos has been CEO since he founded Norwegian Air in 2002. The CEO also addressed speculation that his company might be acquired, saying Norwegian has never said it’s looking for a buyer.
