JAZAN — Rawan Hamdi has made history as the first woman from the southern Jazan region to obtain a captain pilot license. Her journey of empowerment stands as a landmark achievement, reflecting the growing presence of Saudi women in fields that were, for many years, exclusively male-dominated. It also affirms the success of women’s empowerment initiatives aligned with the objectives of Saudi Vision 2030. The Emir of Jazan Prince Mohammed bin Abdulaziz, and Deputy Emir Prince Nasser bin Mohammed praised the Saudi leadership’s steadfast support for the nation’s young men and women, as well as the high-quality opportunities provided to them—opportunities that have enabled many to attain leading positions across diverse sectors. During their meeting with Rawan Hamdi, the emir and deputy emir underscored that women’s entry into the aviation sector in Jazan represents a natural extension of Saudi aspirations, the ambitions that the Crown Prince has described as reaching for the sky and recognizing neither limits nor impossibilities. This accomplishment embodies the expanding presence of Saudi women in specialized fields and reflects the leadership’s confidence in their capabilities and their increasingly influential role in shaping the Kingdom’s future.JAZAN — Rawan Hamdi has made history as the first woman from the southern Jazan region to obtain a captain pilot license.
