The aviation and airport industries encompass a wide range of career paths and opportunities related to air travel and transport, from airside and landside jobs to work in the terminals and even off-airport jobs like publishing.
This month, Metropolitan Airport News focuses on women in the aviation industry, including women-owned businesses in and around the New York metropolitan area airports. We asked each of these featured women questions about their careers, work in their respective areas of the industry, women in leadership, and sustainability, and here, we offer their one-on-one insight in their own words. Due to space restrictions, we have selected specific questions and answers from each contributor to share in print. You can find the unedited responses to all of the questions on our website.
In sharing their experience and passion for the aviation and airport industry, their work honors the women who have come before them and today, carry their legacy into the 21st Century.
