launches new Summer Flight School for kids"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>Airline <strong>easyJet<\/strong> has monday announced it is launching a new Summer Flight School, to combat persistent gendered stereotypes of pilot and cabin crew jobs and inspire more young people to consider a career in aviation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As new research by the airline reveals around four in ten children (37%) still believe that a pilot is a job exclusively for men, easyJet is inviting children aged 7 \u2013 12 to go behind the scenes at its training centre for hands on training experiences with real easyJet pilots and crew, to challenge these outdated stereotypes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first-of-its-kind event by the airline will offer children the opportunity to take the controls of an Airbus A320 flight simulator, learn what it takes to provide the best inflight service to passengers and find out from easyJet pilots and cabin crew about their jobs and how they got there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>\u2192 <a href=\"https:\/en\/2023\/08\/wizz-air-orders-a-further-75-a321neo-family-aircraft.html\">Wizz Air orders a further 75 A321neo Family aircraft<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Summer Flight School is the latest initiative from easyJet as part of the airline\u2019s ongoing work to drive greater diversity within areas in the industry that still face a significant gender imbalance, particularly for pilots and cabin crew.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By providing a unique and immersive free experience blending fun, education and hands-on activities, the airline hopes its Summer Flight School will not only inspire a new generation of aviators, but also help the 87% of parents who said they struggle find low cost or free experiences for children during the holidays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re delighted to be taking families behind the scenes with our new Summer Flight School, not only to offer a unique and exciting day out during the school holidays, but also one we hope will inspire the next generation of pilots and cabin crew, showing young people that their aspirations don\u2019t have to be limited by outdated stereotypes and help broaden their horizons&#8221;, Jane Storm, Chief People Officer for easyJet commented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"related-topics\">Related
