India's national carrier, Air India says it has operated a flight around the world with an all-women crew ahead of International Women's Day.
The flight departed on 27 February for San Francisco and returned at the Indira Gandhi International airport on Friday after flying across the globe, BBC reports.
The aircraft, a Boeing 777-200LR, flew over the Pacific last week on its journey to San Francisco, while the return flight flew over the Atlantic, encircling the globe, Air India said on Friday.
An Air India spokesperson said the airline has already applied for a Guinness World Record and Limca Book of Records for this feat.
As part of the celebrations on International Women's Day which is observed on 8 March every year, the flag carrier has also decided to operate similar flights on its domestic and other international routes.
