The Regional Airline Association launched a search for a new president last month after Debby McElroy accepted the position of senior vice president of government affairs with Airports Council International-North America (ACI-NA). McElroy will assume her new role with the K Street organization on December 19, giving the RAA a month-and-a-half to find a replacement. The RAA board has hired SmithBucklin to screen candidates and coordinate interviews.

McElroy will oversee ACI-NA’s government affairs department and will manage the efforts of a lobbying firm on behalf of the association. She will also help develop policy and positions on legislative issues.
