Mumbai: The Air India group undertook a slew of activities to celebrate International Women’s Day on Friday.

Fifteen all-women crew flights were operated in the domestic and international sectors throughout the day, reported ANI.

“Over 15 per cent of the cockpit crew of Air India are women, making it an airline with one of the largest numbers of women pilots,” Air India stated.

Also, women employees constitute as much as 51 per cent of Air India’s workforce.

“In the last two years since the homecoming of Air India to Tata group, there has been a sharp rise in the number of women employees in every sphere of the airline’s activities. At Air India Express, over 13 per cent of pilots are women and close to 50 per cent of the workforce comprises women employees,” the statement added.

The company further informed that it has organised week-long programmes to inspire women employees across the network through webinars and live sessions involving experts in various fields and role models for wider awareness and inspiration.

As a special gesture to customers, Air India Express offered free seat selection and priority boarding services to all female passengers on Friday through its mobile app and website.

“Air India Loyalty Programme Flying Returns is offering its women members a fast-track limited-time opportunity to skip the queue and upgrade to Silver Edge Club, which will offer them exclusive benefits like 15 per cent more reward points, complimentary upgrades, and priority check-in services,” the airline stated.
