Airbus Corporate Jets (ACJ) has been around for some time as the luxurious corporate jets division of Airbus. There are now some 200 ACJs flying around the world, but Airbus wants to build its presence in a buoyant market – despite or even thanks to the pandemic. AirInsight caught up with Head of Marketing, Stan Shparberg, during a media event at the Monaco Yacht Show on September 23 to discuss the current market and plans. In conversation with Airbus ACJ’s Stan Shparberg.
ACJ used the event to launch a new and disruptive interior design made by graffiti artist Cyril Kongo, which brings vibrant colors to the corporate jet world. While the Monaco Yacht Show is all about the most luxurious and impressive yachts and boats, Airbus had the top roof of the Monaco Yacht Club to itself to invite potential customers. It has been the first physical event since the outbreak of the pandemic.
