Air Canada proudly sponsored The Ninety-Nines International Conference and Career Expo in Vancouver, BC, demonstrating its commitment to promoting and supporting women in aviation. The Ninety-Nines, founded in 1929 with Amelia Earhart as its first president, is an organization for female pilots and student pilots that provides mentorship and scholarships. Air Canada’s sponsorship enabled the event to take place in Vancouver and provided visibility for The Ninety-Nines. The company’s support is particularly meaningful for the many Air Canada pilots and employees who are members of the organization.
