Lufthansa Group appoints Kevin Markette as senior director – regional sales South Asia

Based in New Delhi, Kevin will oversee all commercial activities across the South Asia region, including the strategically important Indian market.

A seasoned aviation executive, Kevin brings over 20 years of leadership experience within Lufthansa Group, having successfully managed commercial, customer, and operational teams across Africa, the Middle East, and the Americas. Raised in Spain and South Africa and trained as a commercial pilot, Kevin offers a truly global perspective and strong intercultural fluency.

Kevin began his career with Lufthansa in South Africa in 2000, eventually managing pricing, reservations, and ticketing for Southern Africa. In 2008, he moved to Dubai to lead marketing and business development for the Gulf States, and later became country manager for Ghana, where he was responsible for Lufthansa’s operations in Accra.

From 2016 to 2020, Kevin served as head of sales for the Southeast USA, based in Atlanta, overseeing six major gateways operated by four Lufthansa Group airlines. He was subsequently promoted to head of customer relations for the Americas, based in New York, where he managed service recovery, customer feedback strategy, and commercial insights across North and South America until the end of 2022.

Since 2022, Kevin has been based in Nairobi as general manager for East Africa, leading the Group’s commercial strategy and partnerships across Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and Tanzania. In this role, he spearheaded digital transformation initiatives, supported Brussels Airlines’ regional expansion, and championed sustainability efforts.

According to Lufthansa Group vice president Asia Pacific and joint ventures East, Felipe Bonifatti:

“With over two decades at Lufthansa Group, Kevin brings extensive international experience to the Asia Pacific region. His sharp commercial insight and passion for our industry make him an invaluable addition. I am delighted to welcome him to Delhi, where he will lead all commercial activities for the Lufthansa Group in this strategically important market.”

Kevin is passionate about building high-performing, cross-cultural teams and cultivating long-term partnerships with customers and stakeholders. Outside of work, he and his wife Jolene enjoy traveling, culinary adventures, and spending time outdoors.
