Ken knew he wanted to be a pilot at 8 years old. But his career path took several twists and turns.
In his mid-50s, when most people think about their retirement plans, Ken decided to leave a comfortable role at Southwest Airlines to start up two commercial airlines - one in the US and one in the Middle East. When oil prices skyrocketed in 2008, Ken was faced with shutting down the newly launched airline SkyBus. Ken moved on to start and run the operations for the first low-cost carrier in the UAE- flydubai- for the next 11 years until his retirement at 72 years old.
Ken opens up about how his faith and how the counsel of his wife and children shaped his life choices and major career decisions.
