United Airlines CEO to have ‘healthy recovery,’ his family says
United has declined to offer details of Munoz's condition or whether it would replace him on an interim basis. The second largest U.S. airline by capacity has only said it will finish on Monday the "corporate governance process" brought about by Munoz&039;s hospitalization, with plans to provide more details Monday or Tuesday. Long-time executive Jim Compton, the airline&039;s chief revenue officer, is seen as a logical candidate for interim CEO, a former U.S. airline executive said on condition of anonymity.
