Udo Stern, translation: Star, very well experienced and crisis approved toplevel manager at Lufthansa, WDL Aviation and Member of Board at Blue Wings, recommended himself for CEO position at Corona struggling Romanian flag carrier TAROM.
Just on January 05, 2022 the only 6 months in charge former CEO Cătălin Prunariu was exchanged against ex-Romanian Post manager Mihaita Ursu, according Stern not the utmost best possible choice needed for the mammut task.
In consequence Stern recommended himself for this ejector seat job in full recognition of the too much CEO exchanges in the last few years. A professional out of aviation like him should given the chance in a longer time periode to bring back TAROM on black zero first and in a second step to profit to avoid a sad destiny like old Italian flag carrier Alitalia.

Constanta the ex- Monaco of the East with it‘s over 2.600 years of changing history between Orient and Occident (e.g. Greeks, Romans) and living peaceful co-existence of multicultural ethnics has the sleeping power, capability and scenic artifacts for an upper level contra cheap, loud and anti-green tourism with culture, origin nature, genuine healthy food&drinks&spa and entertainments on upper niveau.
Boosting complementary also capital Bucuresti, famous Castle Dracula, the unique Romanian Royal Train to mentioned only a few on Stern‘s to do list could bring Romania and of course TAROM not only on Europe‘s Tourism Top List, but also on the World‘s!To mention in this long lasting good German-Romanian relationship is the circumstance that Romanian King Carol I. had spent his youth in Benrath Castle, just over the street where Stern lives at the Rhine river. “In continuation of this holy spirit and good faith and trust I would perform my duty for the wealth of Romania, TAROM and the nice, open and friendly Romanians“ Stern says hoping that his reasonable offer including strategy finds open ears within Romania Government.
