Fraport Twin Star Airport Management AD has announced a change in its executive leadership. Dr. Frank Quante, who has served as Chief Executive Officer for nearly five years, will step down to take on a senior management role within the Fraport Group in Türkiye.
Michael Reusch will assume the role of CEO at Fraport Twin Star. He is currently a board member for several Fraport AG subsidiaries, including Fraport USA Inc., and Fraport TAV Antalya in Türkiye. “Leading Fraport Twin Star has been an exceptional journey, marked by collaboration, progress, and shared achievements,” said Dr. Frank Quante. He expressed gratitude for his team’s dedication and confidence in Michael Reusch’s leadership.
Michael Reusch joined Fraport in 2003 and has managed global airport transactions and investments across various continents. His recent work includes leading a €2.5 billion long-term financing project to support investment in Antalya Airport, Türkiye. As a Supervisory Board member of Fraport Twin Star, he is familiar with the company’s achievements and strategic direction.
Reusch holds a Master of Laws (LL.M.) in Business Law from the University of Applied Sciences Mainz, Germany, and a degree in economics from the University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt, Germany. He is certified in leadership and project management.
The transition occurs as Fraport Twin Star advances major infrastructure projects such as runway rehabilitation at Burgas Airport and sustainability-driven initiatives at both airports. These efforts align with Fraport AG’s commitment to maintaining high standards while supporting Bulgaria’s tourism and logistics hub role.
“I am honored to take on this role and build on the solid foundation laid by Dr. Frank Quante and the outstanding team in Bulgaria,” said Michael Reusch. “This transition is not just a leadership change – it is a handover grounded in trust, shared values, and mutual respect.”
The management transition reflects the Fraport Group’s vision for continuity and leadership development across its international operations.
