Today is National Intern Day! 🎉

Internships are about so much more than gaining experience—they’re about creating opportunities, building confidence, discovering passions, and giving the next generation a chance to learn, contribute, and grow.

We would have never made it through our busy summer without Ansleigh and Autumn! They showed up everyday with curiosity, fresh ideas, and a willingness to learn.

We appreciate you more than you know, and we’re cheering you on. We can’t wait to watch you “Take Flight” in this world! YAY INTERNS.

Today marks 10 years since the first aircraft was delivered from our U.S. Manufacturing Facility in Mobile, Alabama.

That delivery was a defining moment, not only for Airbus but also the City of Mobile, the State of Alabama and the U.S. It represented the beginning of our journey that has taken us far beyond our initial expectations.

More than 600 aircraft later, from a site that has tripled in size, our progress is a testament to our team’s dedication to satisfying our customers with the highest quality aircraft and to the unwavering commitment of our community stakeholders and industry partners.

Thank you, Team Mobile!
