Flight Options insists that it’s business as usual despite last month’s unexpected departure of the company’s chairman and CEO, John Nahill. In a written statement, Flight Options said Nahill, who held the top job at the Cleveland-based fractional provider since February last year, left “to pursue other interests.” A Flight Options spokeswoman told AIN that the former chief left of his own accord and was not terminated by the company.

The company’s COO, Michael Scheeringa, has added the title of acting CEO while the Flight Options board conducts an “extensive” search for Nahill’s permanent replacement. Scheeringa joined the fractional provider in February from US Airways, where he was vice president of the Express regional airline division. While at the airline, he held a series of management positions and oversaw the MetroJet and US Airways Shuttle divisions.
