Firstly, the carrier held several events at the Skylight Hotel at Addis Ababa Bole International Airport (ADD), attended by government officials, distinguished guests, and airline executives. The airline operated flights entirely managed by women - from catering, maintenance, check-in to lounge services and flight operations.
The special flights were from Addis Ababa to Bahir Dar (Ethiopia), Athens, Delhi, Dubai, Windhoek, and São Paulo. These destinations were served by various aircraft types including the Airbus A350, Boeing 787, 737 MAX, and Dash 8-Q400. Speaking about the initiative Ethiopian Airlines CEO Mesfin Tasew said:
"We are thrilled to celebrate March 8 as we do every year at Ethiopian Airlines. As an employer of choice we are deeply committed to promoting diversity and inclusion within the aviation industry and the broader community. "
"In today's modern aviation landscape women play an indispensable role across all sectors significantly contributing to the industry's dynamic growth. Today we honor the remarkable achievements of women in aviation and beyond while also inspiring future generations to pursue their dreams without limitations. "
The occasion aimed to recognize incredible achievements of women in breaking stereotypes in traditionally male-dominated fields. Additionally these all- women-operated flights aligned with global calls for gender equality
