MYTRAVEL has appointed former Thomson Travel Group chief
executive officer Roger Burnell and ex-Barclays Bank finance director David
Allvey as non-executive directors.
Burnell spent 25 years with Thomson Travel Group (now TUI
UK) and has substantial experience of the vertically-integrated tour operating
industry.
Burnell is also a non-executive chairman of International
Life Leisure Group and non-executive chairman of The First Resort.
In a move to reassure shareholders there will be no more
accounting issues, Allvey will become chairman of the audit committee.
He was finance director of Barclays Bank until December 2000
and is currently a non-executive director of the UK Accounting Standards Board.
