The boss of Qatar Airways has issued “heartfelt apologies for any offence caused” for saying that a woman could not do his job.
Akbar al-Baker said on Tuesday that the airline had to be led by a man “because it is a very challenging position”.
He later defended Qatar Airways’ record on gender diversity, but that failed to quell growing criticism.
In a statement on Wednesday, Mr al-Baker said Qatar Airways fully supported gender equality.
