Why did you skipped the part where she was talking about how hard to get passport in nyayo House ,,, and this how problem will continue being the norm since we are afraid to hit the nail on the head

She is so honest , humble and simple. No show off.

What i have learnt from her story ....the power of words .....just confess what you want and one day it'll come to pass .

She flew, then drove, then rode the bike last... Wow! Such a wonderful story!

Am a Nigerian residing in the UK and I must say your journey to greatness is an amazing one. Motivating and inspirational. We need more girls like you coming through the ranks as captains. Weill done Captain Karauri and also a special thanks to 2 of the best airlines in Africa -Ethiopian Airlines and Kenya Airways for supporting women who dream of becoming pilots.

It's obvious to me why she succeeded: a truly remarkable person in so many ways! BTW, I salute Kenya Airways for leading the world in gender equality. Why don't they crow a little louder about this?

What a lovely, confident, determined person. A big credit for Kenya Airways.

Well done Ruth, from John in the UK. An inspiration to many people who have lived their dreams, even if it was only at the start to wear a certain uniform. The path to becoming a 787 captain is NOT easy, thousands would have fallen by the wayside, once again, well done!!! Good luck for the future in your career.

Born in Nairobi but now living in uk you guys make us proud when you fly in to Heathrow. Respect to all KQ pilots.

am so excited and happy for her i feel like its me with that achievement!! and such insightful words of advice to parents. so proud of you Ruth and Clive too with whom she was with on that heathrow flight. keep going.

Yes! univsersity degree is overrated. If you are doing something technical and you feel like going to university is not something you really need and are ready to go straight to the job market we should encourage that. Infact most developed countries like Germany after high school many of the students join the job market like going to work for companies in technical fields like factory workers operating highly sophisticated equipment. Thats what they call skilled workers which Kenya needs so badly. Infact most developed countries have more workers without UNI degrees than with UNI degrees. UNI Degrees should be kept for people who need extra training like doctors, some engineering, if you are specializing in careers that have biology, physics, chemistry in them. MBA if you want to become a CEO, psychiatrists. What the govt needs to do is list careers that do not require university degrees and those that require one. So that students do not need to waste 3yrs of their lives going to UNiversity when they do not have to. Thats why we need more TVETS than universities. If someone who needs Advance learning like this pilot they can later on to do a masters or advance courses after working in their careers.

Well done Ruth. You're a very skillful pilot.

From humble beginnings with a beautiful heart and personality. She brings pride to us all.

True definition of Am a Woman,fearless and Devine Congrats girl I’ll live my dream too to become a flight attendant 🙏🏾

Shes such a vibe. Her being a captain pilot and her husband being the SportPesa CEO make a super power couple.

Proud of you cap. Karauri, your testimony is so encouraging, straight from the heart. God bless you always.

I love her energy! Humble with glowing Boss moves 👑. Such an inspiration to all women 💕 You make us proud 🇰🇪🇰🇪 With love from Seattle !

Bombardier CRJ is now Japanese under Mitsubishi ownership. I thought I should correct that for fellow plane lovers!! Good interview!! Such an inspirational story!!👍🏾👂🏾 👏🏾🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 "Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble." James 2:19

More power to you Captain! Thank you for representing women in Africa

Thanks for encouragement. My dreams of becoming a pilot are valid too.

Very inspirational. Lesson learnt you don't need all this education to succeed you only need God.

Brilliant, beautiful and humble. You are quite the inspiration! ❤️

Proud of you Capt Ruth. I salute Kenya Airways for narrowing the gap in gender equality for women. Where is Captain Koki? 🙌🙌🙌

. A thrilling story beyond words. From village to the sky and an example for any woman, any African, any person anywhere. Simply to hear that accent and to see that uniform and to listen to that story all at the same time gives such confidence that women, including African women, are on their way to achieving their place beside any man. This story shows us that a whole half of all humanity deserves to be unleashed to raise us all up.

From humble beginning ,God has sustained her in her beautiful journey, congratulations to you and best wishes to our future women pilots not only from Kenyan but from the whole continent of Africa.

Congratulations Ruth, your story is so inspiring. Well done. You make us ladies proud

Love this lady's story and I just want to know even more about her. Been to Kenya twice and all told (between the two trips) I traveled seven times on Kenya Airways within the Kenyan interior and back and forth to London. On my first trip there was great pride amongst the airline and the people as there had recently been an all-female flight (pilot, co-pilot, and crew). I'm willing to bet she was a part of that. My heart swells with pride for the women of Kenya.

You did Kenya proud Cpt👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 this is our 15year old sons dream just shared this with him 😊

I tell you, when the universe aligns itself for you....! God's plan and timing is always the best

What an inspiring story! Well done Ruth!

She is such an inspiration. I used to have the desire to be a pilot, I even thought of taking lessons for private pilots license training.

I like her story and how she came to being a great pilot. I'd be looking forward to fly with her sometime soon.

What a lovely, humble, natural lady. I also wanted to be a pilot. I wanted to fly planes. I wanted to fly, period. But I gave up on my dreams. I was told I couldn't become a pilot because I was born with a stutter. I heard this piece of advice from a KQ captain. So, it was legit information. I gave up. I went to High School. I went to University. I studied Graphic Design and Advertising. That Bachelor's degree is sitting in the bottom of my bedroom drawer. I do nothing with it. I still want to fly. So I think she's right. She would've been miserable if she'd gone for Engineering instead of following her dreams.

Captain Ruth, you're a gift to the world. Gifted. Intelligent. Elegant. Humble. What a wonderful combination. Continuing inspiring with what you do and you're beautiful life. God's rich blessings continue to be upon you as you inspire the next generation of aviation professionals. I loved the video.

She is Cute..... Kind and loving not showing off. May the Lord bless you more... your blessed!. always eat well! .God is your reason to smile, Have adequate sleep, laugh more smile more, have acircle of good friends love both of your parents and your creator.for making you who you are today.stay loved and blessed....

Captain Ruth , You are truly amazing . Thank you for being an inspiration to us all .

Congratulations to you Capt. We're proud of you

I 💖 this. I love travel, respect and admire Pilots. Female pilots are capable & brave just like male pilots Uni is'nt everything, Bet she's making more money that MANY University graduates. She's a great inspiration. 🌹👏👍✔️

Hi my daughter since the time she 1yrs she has bn signing she to be doctor.. am proud of her and humble life 💝

Wonderful lady! True, you are beautiful too. Very inspirational... she rocks!

Amazing achievement! She gives us hope.

Amazing and inspiring🙏🔥

Sharp and honest.. well done Ruth

Wow i hope when they do retrenchment these aldy pilots are not let go. they are such a big asset in so many ways. inspirational to the country and also to the world it shows Kenya is a very very progressive country and that elevates the countries image especially having African lady pilots. If you told anyone around the world even in Kenya that there are 40 lady pilots they wount believe it just like me and others did not think Kenya has 40 lady pilots. I though they were just a handful five at most those ones we see on youtube and occasionally in the media. How come we never get to hear about these lady pilots. 40 of them is phenomenol.

Inspirational! Putting this here for when I meet you📌

So inspirational.....well done keep grinding

Wow! She is truly an inspiration.

Very well done. Proud of you. Say hello to Mbekks…..we go way back in the hood plus he’s my high school alumni too.
