The Spanish airline Iberia Express celebrates its 12th anniversary this March, and it does so with a firm commitment to female talent.

54% more female pilots

Of the total number of Iberia Express pilots, nearly 8% are women, a figure that is almost double the world average for the sector. The number of female pilots at Iberia Express has increased by almost 54% in the last year, a particularly relevant fact in the aeronautical industry, which still has a pending issue, namely the greater incorporation of women in the more technical professions such as pilot or aeronautical engineer.
