EasyJet chief operating officer quits amid growing anger over flight chaos

EasyJet’s chief operating officer Peter Bellew has resigned amid growing anger over flight disruption. The airline said Bellew had left "to pursue other business opportunities" and wished him well.

It comes after the airline has become one of the worst hit for cancellations in recent months. Thousands of flights were axed, including many on the day they were due to depart.

Mr Bellew joined easyJet from Ryanair two-and-a-half years ago, but has now resigned from his post as the low cost airline continues to try and get back on its feet after stopping various routes throughout the summer months.
