Travelocity names Europe head

Tuesday, 12 October 20043 min read

Travelocity has appointed one of its own directors to head up its European business.

Damon Tassone, previously senior vice president of distribution at Travelocity, takes the London-based role of president of Travelocity Europe after it was vacated by Dirk Hauke. Mr Hauke moved to the Otto Group, a Germany-based partner of Travelocity.

Earlier this month Travelocity took the remaining 50% stake in its European joint venture with the exception of the German businesses, which continues to be part-owned by the Otto Group.

Mr Tassone will report to Travelocity chief executive Michelle Peluso. Ned Booth will continue to run the UK business.
