Livery of the Week

Unfortunately, with the retirement of the 747 from British Airways’ fleet as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, these liveries became relics themselves.

Over the years, the airline’s aircraft have sported various designs, each reflecting the evolving brand identity and capturing the essence of its home state.

As part of LXmas, SWISS International Airlines has painted two aircraft with red noses as a nod to the popular fictional reindeer.

Air New Zealand’s current paint scheme features a sleek and bold jet-black exterior adorned with the iconic white fern emblem.

China Airlines partnered with Airbus to create the manufacturer’s first-ever co-branded livery, highlighting a key feature of the A350.

Complementing the tail, a single Rondelle is on the inside of the bold black engine design of some aircraft, including the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

As a newer airline, ITA Airways’ brand and livery is bold and eye-catching, a refresh from the former Alitalia design.

Aeromexico’s ‘Quetzalcoatl’ 787-9 Dreamliner is eye-catching indeed. The airline created a stand-out design.

Several airlines pay homage to their roots with retro liveries, including both American and United in the U.S., but JetBlue’s is unique.

The airline’s trademark red tail was adapted to match the earthy red tones and white dotting technique of the original piece, according to Qantas.
