The Akasa<\/strong> Group, India’s youngest airline, is on a goal to expand female employee participation from 37% to 50%<\/strong>. With the government aiming for 200 airports and at least 1,200 commercial aircraft, the number of female pilots is only going to increase. Akasa Air, which debuted with 17 jets only six months ago, will receive at least 50 new planes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
