-   Build cabin crew and customer-facing service training curriculum, mystery shopper protocols, and performance feedback loops
-   Establish service recovery protocols, guest issue resolution frameworks, and guest-facing performance metrics
-   Build the guest feedback infrastructure, including post-flight surveys, NPS tracking, and qualitative research
-   Report guest experience performance to the executive team and board

## Requirements

-   10+ years of progressive customer experience or service leadership in luxury hospitality, premium aviation, or ultra-luxury travel
