LONDON, Nov 8 (Reuters) - Willie Walsh, the chief executive
of British Airways owner IAG, said on Friday he planned
to retire within the next two years.
"I have indicated that I'm clearly getting closer to
retirement... the board has been working for some time, as you
would expect, on succession planning," Walsh said at IAG's
annual capital markets day.
He plans to retire before his sixtieth birthday on Oct. 25,
2021, he said. "I still love what I do, but my intention is to
be retired within the next two years."
