As Cathay Pacific’s Regional General Manager for South Asia, Middle East & Africa, Mark Sutch aims at providing customers with an enriched flying experience.
Please tell us about your journey into the aviation industry.
I was lucky enough to fly very young - my first trip on an international flight was when I was merely 6 weeks old. From the moment I could recall the experience of flying, I was passionate about it! Although I think it was watching my late father who was active in the aviation industry that re-enforced my passion for it. Soon after joining the industry, I found myself further interested in it and actually learnt to fly. I eventually bought a share in a private aircraft and safe to say I am hooked!
What are the challenges you face in India’s aviation industry?
With a huge growth in civil aviation in recent years there has been a strain on infrastructure. That said, the new airports in Mumbai and Delhi and many other cities in India are world class. It’s exciting being in a market like India that is growing fast in both domestic and international air travel. My challenge here, like in every other region, is getting from point A to point B on time. But, I must say it’s working well so far!
