I was able to make a bootable USB stick that I could use on a MacBook Air, except that it did not have the necessary driver for the wifi hardware, meaning I was unable to connect to the network.

I did look at the steps on 'Creating a bootable USB Stick', but it didn't indicate any steps to add extra drivers.

The instructions given for installing the drivers are, in a booted Ubuntu to run:

sudo apt-get purge bcmwl-kernel-source
sudo apt-get install firmware-b43-installer

Though, I have no network connection to be able to do this and even then will this stick through reboots?

Had the same problem. Use a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter, it is detected out of the box (no connection needed). Then you can install the wlan drivers.
