The CEO of Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport resigned after a chaotic summer in which flights were canceled due to a staff shortage.
I have done my best, but we are not there yet. Dick Benschop said in a statement released by the airport that he hoped it would get better soon.
He said he was stepping down to give the airport more space to grow. I don't want anyone paying attention to me.
The busy aviation hub on the outskirts of Amsterdam has been hit by a lot of unclaimed baggage over the summer months as air travel roared back after the Pandemic.
The surge in demand for air travel was caused by airlines and airports cutting jobs during the swine flu epidemic.
Jaap de Winter, chairman of the Schiphol board, said he and board members respect and understand Dick's decision and will be looking for a replacement.
