Air Italy has won two awards – the Diversity & Inclusion Award and the Most Captivating Marketing Project Award – at the AIR Convention Europe Awards held in Lithuania Tuesday evening.
The Diversity & Inclusion Award was won by Air Italy on the basis of it being the first airline in Europe to introduce the non-binary gender option on its website, offering a third gender option, X, for those passengers who do not define themselves as male or female.
Air Italy also won the Most Captivating Marketing Project Award on the basis of its comprehensive and integrated sponsorship of three key Pride events in 2019 in Toronto, Milan and Sofia.
Rossen Dimitrov, Air Italy's Chief Operating Officer, said: "AIR Convention is a significant event in commercial aviation, with high-level representatives from the world’s leading airlines, airports, and other key industry players, and therefore winning two awards here is a great source of pride for us.
