Just days after announcing that Certares has taken on full ownership of Avoya Travel, the Host agency has appointed a new CEO. Marc Kazlauskas, currently president of FROSCH and managing director of JPMorgan Chase & Co., will replace co-CEOS Jeff and Michael Anderson who both depart in mid-June. Kazlauskas will begin as CEO on Aug. 4.

Kazlauskas brings decades of experience in the travel sector, including 11 years as president and CEO of Insight Vacations, as well as serving in various senior executive positions at Tauck, Trafalgar, and Orient Lines.

“We’re confident his strategic vision will accelerate our collective success,” Avoya Travel said in its announcement.
