Calling all women who advocate for equity, diversity and inclusion! 👩🎤🧑🏽🎤👨🏿🎤 Women’s Equality Day serves as a reminder of how far we’ve come and the work still ahead in aviation and aerospace. 🩷 Begin today to emphasize the importance of voting as the cornerstone of our democracy. 💚 The 19th Amendment needs to not only recognize women’s successful movement to win the vote, but it needs to call out for equality on all fronts. 🩵 Let’s celebrate the perseverance of the hundreds of thousands of individuals who have and are working for justice. 💚 Women from every background have long realized that an uneven playing field will never bring equality or justice. 🩷 We recognize the example of women who are committed to embracing everyone and excluding no one in our common quest for freedom and opportunity. 👨🏿🎤🧑🏽🎤👩🎤 soFLY ladies know that people change with the help of families, teachers and friends, and that young people in particular need to learn the value of hearing from different voices with different points of view as they grow up. 💪🏻💪🏼💪🏽💪🏾💪🏿 A special thank you to our Male Advocates!

🌟 Leadership Spotlight: Alexsandra Camargo, soFLY Women in Aviation International Vice President & Chief Brand Officer and Fontainebleau Aviation Brand Manager. 🌟 Today we would like to highlight Alexsandra aka "Alex" so we sat down with her and asked her some fun and interesting questions. Here’s a sneak peek: 💬 “If I could have dinner with any pioneering woman in aviation history, it would be Colleen Barrett, former President and COO of Southwest Airlines. Her profound passion for people and her ability to blend love for aviation with a genuine commitment to humanity is something I deeply admire.” ✨ Alexsandra’s journey is all about celebrating small wins, uplifting communities, and empowering women in aviation. From designing a custom aircraft with a unique twist to envisioning her journey as a movie starring Zoe Saldana, Alexsandra’s insights are both inspiring and relatable. Read more about Allexsandra’s inspiring journey and insights here: https://lnkd.in/exZzn4tu Join us in celebrating the remarkable leadership of Alexsandra Camargo, and discover how she’s making waves in aviation! 🚀 #WomenInAviation #LeadershipSpotlight #SoFlyLeadership #EmpoweringWomen Women in Aviation International

Like father, like daughter 🥰 First Officer Mackenzie always knew she wanted to be a Pilot. She was even inspired to dress up like her dad, Captain Michael, in her elementary school days! Once gifted a "discovery flight" (a short introductory flight for those interested in taking the first step toward earning their pilot's license), Mackenzie knew she was meant to fly. Mackenzie pursued her passion at Arizona State University, where she participated in the University Pathway of the Southwest Airlines Destination 225° Pilot Pathways Program. She recently joined the Southwest Family alongside her dad, Captain Michael, and enjoyed her first flight with him. The trip was even sweeter since her mom, brother, and fiancé could join them! Welcome aboard, First Officer Mackenzie; we're so glad you're here! 💙❤️💛 #SouthwestHeart
