Delta - WING Flight

Meanwhile, Delta held its fifth-annual WING Flight - “Women Inspiring our Next Generation” - carrying 120 girls ages 12-18 from Salt Lake City to NASA in Houston.

Delta says that ‘from nose to tail, the flight was planned and orchestrated exclusively by women – including the pilots flying the plane, ramp agents working on the ground, gate agents boarding the flight and women in the tower guiding the aircraft on its way out.’

Delta’s WING Flight originated in 2015 as an effort to diversify a male-dominated industry and expose girls to STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) careers at a young age.
