WASHINGTON, Aug 18 (Reuters) - Former New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu, who passed up a chance to run for the U.S. Senate in 2026, will serve as the head of the trade group Airlines for America, the group said Monday.
The influential airline lobbying group includes American Airlines AAL.O, Delta Air Lines DAL.N, United Airlines UAL.O, FedEx FDX.N and Southwest Airlines LUV.N. Sununu, a Republican, will take over on Sept. 9, replacing Nick Calio, a former aide to President George W. Bush who headed the group since 2011
