Once in a while, we’ll see airlines highlight the special ways that flights are crewed, whether it’s an all-female crew, all-black crew, mother-daughter pilot duo, etc. Well, Taiwan-based SkyTeam carrier China Airlines just had a milestone flight, and it was neither a coincidence, nor was it planned by the company.
So as a one-time thing, I think this is a really lovely concept. And I think it’s all the cooler when you consider the fact that the company didn’t even have anything to do with the planning, but instead, the flight attendants took it upon themselves to plan this.
Bottom line
Until recently, China Airlines didn’t even allow too many male flight attendants to work on the same flight. The union finally managed to get the company to end that policy, so they decided to celebrate by planning an all-male trip. Their planning really was impressive, as they managed to bid on the same New York trip on the first try.
As a one-time thing, I think this is fantastic. In the future, hopefully gender won’t be a consideration in planning one way or another.
What do you make of this China Airlines all-male crew?
