Flight International Senior Editor at Reed Business Information
Lancaster, Pennsylvania Area
For the last decade Mary Kirby has worked as both a journalist and editor for the Flight group’s suite of online and print publications. She joined Flight’s premium real-time news service Air Transport Intelligence in 1999 as regional reporter (Americas), and was promoted to deputy editor (Americas) in 2003 and later to US editor.
Since September of 2007, Mary has worked as a senior editor at Flight International magazine and become a regular contributor to the industry’s premium monthly publication, Airline Business.
Working from the Philadelphia area, Mary covers North American major and regional carriers and regional aircraft manufacturers in the Americas, and has developed expertise in the in-flight entertainment (IFE) sector.
She is also the proprietor of the fast-growing Runway Girl blog. This has given Mary a happy outlet for her newsy posts and slightly cheeky sense of humour.
Previous assignments include a post at World Airlines News, where she was reporter/acting editor. She majored in English at St Vincent College in Pennsylvania.
