Delta Airlines cargo president Peter Penseel has joined Maastricht Aachen Airport’s (MST) new supervisory board.
Penseel brings over 30 years of experience in airfreight, including senior roles at Qatar Airways, DHL Global Forwarding, UTi, and CEVA Logistics.
“Maastricht Airport is looking to the future with a new chief executive, Joos Meijs, joining next month and a robust plan for further developing our cargo services,” said Jonas van Stekelenburg, MST chief executive.
“Peter’s solid track record in airfreight adds weight to our new Supervisory Board and we look forward to his help in driving new initiatives for our cargo offering.”
Joost Meijs was appointed chief executive of MST in July and will begin the role on October 1.
MST, the Netherlands’ second largest cargo hub, has a new management structure following Royal Schiphol Group’s purchase of a 40% stake in June last year.
The airport group, which owns Amsterdam Airport Schiphol, became the second shareholder in MST alongside the province of Limburg, which owns the remaining 60%.
The Supervisory Board, which is tasked with steering future growth at the airport, is made up of experts in various disciplines within aviation and business, including Frans Weekers, Angelique Palmen and Amsterdam Airport Schiphol’s Kjell Kloosterziel.
MST last year invested €35.3m to upgrade its runway as part of an ongoing €100m infrastructure development plan.
