Use them! We'll go first:
The fairing for our next Ariane 6 flight is now decorated with its passenger's logo: MTG-I2!
MTG-I2 is now being fuelled, and will be connected to its launch adapter ahead of encapsulation.

This timelapse shows (quickly) the weeks of work needed to get MTG-I2 and Ariane 6 ready for liftoff.
This was the ninth launch of Europe’s heavy-lift rocket Ariane 6, the first to go to as far as Geostationary Transfer Orbit.
