The two top leaders at the European Business Aviation Association (EBAA) have announced their departures in what the group called “a series of leadership changes as part of a broader organizational reform initiative aimed at enhancing the association’s effectiveness, responsiveness, and value.” Effective immediately, Holger Krahmer has stepped down from his role as secretary general, while COO Robert Baltus resigned last month to go to Zeusch Aviation but is staying on at EBAA to support the transition. Former Jet Aviation and Luxaviation executive Stefan Benz has been appointed as EBAA interim managing director, effective today.
This move comes just days before EBAA’s planned June 30 announcement about where its annual EBACE show will be held next year. Last month at EBACE, it said the event would be held either in late May or early June 2026, depending on the selected location, and listed eight potential European cities. An EBAA spokesman told AIN today that there will be a forthcoming announcement on Monday, but did not specify whether or not this will address the future of the EBACE event.
