Joost van Doesburg, Head of Cargo at Royal Schiphol Group, announced his resignation effective February 1, 2025, to pursue new challenges. Appointed in March 2023, he was instrumental in leading cargo operations and faced criticism for advocating a policy to reserve 2.5% of take-off and landing slots for cargo, a move later deemed illegal by the Dutch Supreme Court. Schiphol expressed regret over his departure, citing unjust criticism and media scrutiny. Patricia Vitalis praised his achievements, including the renewal of the Cargonaut system and increased cargo volumes.
