Short's Travel Appoints Ryan Dohmen President of STM Charters

WATERLOO, Iowa, May 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Ryan Dohmen is the new President of STM Charters, the wholly-owned subsidiary of Short's Travel Management.  Mr. Dohmen had previously served as Director of Charters for STM Charters, a position he held since 2008.  David LeCompte, CEO of Short's Travel Management, had previously acted as STM Charters' president.  The charter service has established itself as a leader in charter consultancy among collegiate sports teams, setting itself apart by offering outstanding customer service and working closely with teams to provide fast and reliable charter services to colleges across the country. 

"I have a strong vision for how I want the company to grow," said Mr. Dohmen.  "We have a good name with the backing of Short's Travel and that carries a lot of weight.  Our reputation is outstanding in the collegiate market and I think we have tremendous potential to grow in other areas as well. I'm excited about the opportunity and look forward to increasing our presence in the market."

Mr. Dohmen says that he plans on expanding his reach by joining several new associations in the coming quarter, as well as participating in conventions and speaking engagements, and other forums to get the word out about STM Charters and the air charter business.

"I feel that part of our responsibility to our clients and their peers is to provide education on the air charter industry," added Mr. Dohmen.  "Many of our clients charter only a couple times per year, and they don't always understand the process, what they should be looking for, and what pitfalls they may encounter."
