Girls Take Flight 2023 with Mitchinson’s Flight Centre
Thank you to everyone who came to the Girls Take Flight event on the weekend. It was great to be present at the Mitchinson’s Flight Centre’s event alongside SIIT, Saskatchewan Polytechnic, the Saskatchwan Aviation Museum and other leading organizations.
It’s really important that we support the goals and dreams of those wanting to take up a career in aviation.
Across the globe, women are underrepresented in aviation and we want to play our part in changing that. In 2019, IATA launched its “25by2025” initiative as a voluntary industry-wide campaign that focuses on improving
female representation in the industry. The campaign targets not only airlines but also aircraft manufacturers, and aviation-services providers.
Currently, 100 signatories have committed to reaching 25% of leadership positions being held by women in 2025, or to deliver a 25% improvement in such numbers by that year.
Rise Air has surpassed this target with 50% of our leadership positions being held by women today.
We can’t wait to see you at the next Girls Take Flight event!
Ralph (the cat) knew where he would get attention, he took over part of our display.
If you are running an event and would like the team from Rise Air to come, complete the contact form and we will get back to you. Please make requests more than 4 weeks in advance so that we can do our best to get you in to our calendar.
Rise Air, We’re Going Places!
