Welcome aboard a birthday flight to honor Bessie Coleman, the first Black and Native American female to earn a pilot's license. American Airlines and Barbie worked together to surprise customers with a Bessie Coleman doll from the Barbie Inspiring Women line. Bessie was a pioneer in aviation and taught us that reaching for the sky is just the beginning. 😊 We were honored to share her inspirational story and celebrate this moment with our customers on Bessie’s birthday. | American Airlines
