The online travel market is evolving rapidly with digital transformation at the forefront to help improve the traveller experience.
Around the globe, Amadeus offers expertise and solutions to help start-ups to mega online travel retailers evolve and expand their businesses, and explore the possibilities of the future.
To lead this mission in the Americas, Eduardo Schutte, senior vice president, online travel, Americas, is the newest member of the Amadeus Travel Channels leadership team.
He will report to Mieke De Schepper, executive vice president for online travel at Amadeus.
Schutte succeeds Stephane Durand, who became senior vice president, business travel, in western Europe, Middle East and Africa late last year.

Schutte is based in Miami, Florida.
Schepper said: “Eduardo brings to the team a global and versatile experience in sales management, distribution, marketing, strategic planning, revenue management and product and program management.
“He will be focused on helping our customers achieve their goals as many are immersed in digital evolution and international expansion.
