On Children’s Day, Akasa Air hosted an Aviation Experience Day for 50 students from the Logic Centre and Community Welfare Association (LCCWA). Held at the AIESL NEC Hangar in Mumbai, the event was organised in partnership with Mumbai International Airport Ltd (MIAL) and AI Engineering Services Limited (AIESL). The initiative aimed to ignite curiosity and interest in aviation among 9th and 10th-grade students.
The Logic Centre and Community Welfare Association, a Mumbai-based NGO founded in 2012 by community leaders and retired IIT Bombay professors, focuses on supporting underprivileged children. The NGO provides classroom coaching, computer training, nutritious meals, health check-ups, and hygiene education, striving to enhance academic performance and foster positive social values among children attending municipal and low-resourced schools.
On the occasion, Vinay Dube, Founder and Chief Executive Office, Akasa Air, said: “Aviation is an industry that touches nearly every aspect of global connectivity and technological innovation. For us at Akasa, the experience of hosting this enthusiastic group of children was an opportunity to inspire young minds and reinforce our commitment to community support. The event brought our values to life, enabling us to give back in meaningful ways to deserving communities. We hope that one day, these young minds become proud Akasians themselves and look back to remember that their first-ever aircraft experience was with Akasa—making it a true moment of pride for all of us. As we continue to expand our outreach efforts, partnerships like this one with LCCWA remind us of the lasting impact that even a single day of inspiration can have. Akasa Air is honoured to play a part in broadening perspectives, nurturing dreams, and empowering young people to reach for the skies.”
As part of the Aviation Experience Day, the students enjoyed an exclusive tour of an Akasa Air aircraft, gaining insights into its design, technology, and operations. Akasa Air’s Executive Committee members, along with pilots, cabin crew, and engineering teams, led an interactive session to introduce students to various professions within the airline industry. From technical maintenance to cabin crew responsibilities, the students explored the breadth of career opportunities available in aviation, offering them valuable guidance as they consider their educational and professional futures.
