Accra to Tamale airline Passion Air has made history after employing the services of a crew that was made up of only females right from the flight deck to the cabin.
According to a report filed by the airline sighted by YEN.com.gh on the group's official Facebook handle, the all-female crew made the historic feat on Saturday, February 20, 2021.
The move by the flight, OP 178, was aimed at empowering women and encouraging their participation in male-dominated fields.
Captain Eva Gichuru, who served as the pilot-in-command spoke after the journey, indicating how relevant the feat has been to ensure a balance in gender roles.
In her own words:
“This flight indicates that, whatever men can do, women can do and even better when given equal opportunities.”
Preliminary checks conducted by Briefly.co.za suggest that this is the first time a local airline has used the services of only women as the crew for a flight.
In a separate report, a young woman with a grateful heart recently headed to Facebook to share a touching post about finally getting a job. According to her post, she had walked to the offices for the interview, which made her even more grateful when she got it.
Megan Christoffels once again headed to Facebook's ImStaying to share yet another moving story. This time, the young woman shared that she had been forced to walk to an interview because she had no money for taxi fare. Her determination paid off as she was called in for training the very next day.
"Good day Stayers. So yesterday I had an interview but at 1st I told myself I can't go to this interview because I had no taxi fare. I had a conversation with myself telling myself why I need this job and decided to walk."
Many congratulated her on the new job and also commended her determination.
