Japan Airlines Corp., undergoing major restructuring under bankruptcy protection, is appointing the head of a subsidiary as its new president.

Japan Airlines said Wednesday it will promote Masaru Onishi, 54, to president.

The appointment will be effective on Feb. 1, the airline said in a statement. Onishi currently heads Japan Air Commuter Co. Ltd., a subsidiary operating in southern Japan.

Saddled with massive debt, Japan Airlines, known as JAL, filed for bankruptcy protection last week.
