Summer Internship Programme
Our Summer Internship Programme provides students with an opportunity to experience AA’s unique working environment. Through the internships - which are available in different departments every year – students are involved in Hong Kong International Airport (HKIA)’s daily operations, earn exposure through meaningful projects and gain valuable workplace experience.
On top of the department attachment, students will also learn from a series of well-structured training courses, site visit and project assignment.
Interns with high caliber and outstanding performance will be given direct entry to the Assessment Centre of the AAHK Management Trainee Programme selection.
Programme Structure
Apart from challenging on-the-job assignments, our interns will be able to learn all-round airport operations and enhance their personal effectiveness by attending customised activities such as airport visits and classroom trainings. They will also be assigned to complete a group project during the internship period.

“An internship beyond expectation”
When I tell others about my internship at the AA, they always wonder if I focused only on the work of operating an airport.
Read MoreFor starters, the level of exposure was remarkable. One of the most pleasant surprises was the extent of cross-collaboration throughout the airport community, HKIA is so diversified yet dynamically interconnected. By participating in various meetings and events, I was able to take advantage of precious opportunities to interact with many leaders of the aviation industry and get a taste of what teamwork at the top is like.
Then there was my role as an intern, which far exceeded my expectations. Interns here are tasked with challenging responsibilities. One of my projects was to assess the impacts of a new transit/transfer initiative on passenger flow. From devising evaluation frameworks and collecting data, to interpreting the results and mapping out a way forward, it was very fulfilling to see the project come to fruition.
I enjoyed every second of my summer internship at the AA. If you are looking for an internship with a unique mix of excitement and hands-on-experience, the programme here is perfectly the right choice!

"The internship programme has reinforced my commitment and passion towards aviation."
The internship programme consists of many customised learning activities and site visits that introduced me to the "Airport City" vision and HKIA's strategic position in the promising GBA market.
Read MoreDuring job attachment, I took up a key role in several important projects on digital business and the MyHKG mobile app, and conducted a comprehensive analysis on the business travel market. Through these projects, I gained deeper understanding on smart airport development and the application of technologies in business value creation.
Seniors and colleagues were supportive and helpful. They gave me useful advice on both career and personal development. Working with them, I fully experienced and comprehended the AA’s core values, particularly "Caring" and "Collaboration".
After completing the internship programme, my commitment and passion towards aviation was reinforced.
