Air India is celebrating International Women’s Day this year in a very unique way.
The airline announced its March 6 flight from New Delhi to San Francisco was manned by an all women crew, from the cabin right up to the cockpit. It’s the longest flight of its kind.
According to the airline’s Twitter page, the flight “took off with pride and glory,” calling it “a record.”
On March 8, Air India said it plans to send 22 more flights into the skies with all women crews.
International Women’s Day is observed each year on March 8. This year’s theme is gender parity.
