Feature: Saudi women's career ambitions in civil aviation take wing amid progressive reforms

Mashael Muteb, Flynas' first female Saudi flight attendant, attends a meeting on women's career in civil aviation at Prince Sultan University campus in Saudi Arabia's capital of Riyadh, on Feb. 26, 2019. 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. Flynas and Flyadeal, two Saudi low-fare airlines, have shattered the big blue ceiling, graduating their first class of female Saudi flight attendants and putting them on their first flights earlier this year.
