Airbus Factory Tour

IMG_5549

I’ve written tons of blog posts but this must be the most exclusive, priceless piece yet: A one-of-a-kind, personalized, ala VVIP trip to the Airbus factory in France. Indeed, it is an experience money can’t buy (even if you could, I wouldn’t want to imagine its price).

From the offices to factories, lunch la vie en rose to exploring the luxurious mock-up centre; which only Airbus staffs and their clients can enter – We did it all thanks to AirAsia X for planning such a generous gesture. Now I’d love to share this journey with you. Shall we begin? 🙂

{This is how the end of our A380 factory visit looks like. This corner gave me a very strong deja vu feeling so I decided to capture it and bring it home. Somehow I still feel related to it; not sure the reason behind this queerness. Perhaps I am a recycled soul}

{Can’t get more literal than the name here, especially with a glass or two of sparkling champagne. Cheers to life!}

{As I stood opposite that stranger of a man, facing this sophisticated building, I can’t stop wondering to myself – “Imagine what would it be like to work here in Airbus, Toulouse?” That’d be so damn awesome, don’t you think?!}
