Heather Cho [Cho Hyun-ah] resigned from the airline's catering, in-flight sales business, its cabin service and hotel business divisions. But she is keeping her title as a vice president of the national carrier. Just far away from Nuts.
According to South Korean news agency Yonhap, Cho is the eldest daughter of Korean Air's chairman, Cho Yang-ho.
The incident occurred at New York's JFK airport on a flight due to take off for South Korea's, outside Seoul. Cho reportedly demanded that the plane go back to the gate so the crew member who served her nuts, in a bag not a plate, could be kicked off the flight.
Korean Air is facing $1.3 Million fine after CEO's daughter delayed takeoff in response to macadamia nut service.
According to her biography, Heather Cho joined the airline in 1999 and has since been "actively involved in establishing a new corporate identity for Korean Air." She studied at Cornell University and the University of Southern California.
Nuts any one? Just a thought.
