Aurigny Airways' CEO, Nico Bezuidenhout, is under scrutiny for serving as a non-executive director at Uzbekistan Airways while managing Aurigny. Critics, including Deputy Simon Vermeulen, worry this could distract him during challenging times for the airline. However, both an Aurigny spokesperson and STSB President Peter Roffey defended the practice, stating such roles are common and do not detract from his commitment to Aurigny.
