A recent meeting, as part of a "Let's Talk Aviation" campaign organized by Flynas in conjunction with Prince Sultan University, attracted women from across the industry.
Raghda Al-Sulaimani, corporate communications manager at Nesma, a small Saudi airline, began her professional life as a copywriter before receiving a job offer from the airline.
In addressing her female cohorts working in aviation, Al-Sulaimani stressed the importance of creating a balance and a culture of equality between men and women in the workplace. She also urged all aviation companies to create more opportunities for women.
And it is not just the private sector that is opening its doors to women. The GACA hired Maha Al-Yamani, a specialist in risk management, as its first female employee.
According to Al-Yamani, an abundance of positions are available in the aviation sector for Saudi women and the future looks bright in the light of the recent doubling of the number of Saudi women working in the field.
A series of reforms in the country over the past two years has focused largely on empowering women. Notable among these reforms was a Royal Decree issued in September 2017, which lifted the ban on women driving from June 24, 2018.
Recently, Saudi women broke down the gender barriers across public sectors. According to Saudi Press Agency, there are 220 women working at the Ministry of Justice which has granted law practice licenses to 418 female lawyers and trained 3,140 others.
