Three finalists have been selected for general manager of the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport, one of the highest profile positions in city of Atlanta government.
The finalists for running the world’s busiest airport are Hartsfield-Jackson’s current interim manager Miguel Southwell, Oakland aviation director Deborah Ale Flint and Baltimore/Washington International CEO Paul Wiedefeld, the AJC has learned.
Atlanta Mayor Kasim Reed said in a written statement that he looks forward to naming an executive “to lead the city of Atlanta’s most valuable asset.” The mayor plans to interview the finalists and make a selection in two weeks.
The next airport manager will “play a critical role in maintaining the airport’s status as the world’s busiest passenger airport, while growing our air cargo capacity,” Reed said. The mayor said his goal is to position Atlanta as an economic and logistics hub.
