Carlo1963 Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 That is actually one of the worst liverys I have ever seen. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orso Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 Awful. Look like a low fare airline livery one prefer not to use. But it follow what every airline is doing. Getting more ugly for every update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skodadriver Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 I'll reserve judgment until I see it in the flesh, so to speak. My immediate impression isn't favourable (no temple windows ) but I wasn't taken with the latest Lufthansa livery until I saw it up close on an A321 Neo and decided I rather liked it after all.

Cklasse Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 My impression is like looking at a budget airline plane. Some airlines such as Singapore Airlines has not changed its livery since it started in 1972. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Britman Posted August 15, 2023 Share Posted August 15, 2023 It doesn't tell me at a glance who the operator might be with that tail logo. BA, American Emirates do the job for me. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upnorth Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 (edited) It reminds me of when Iberia changed their livery to the current one. They went from a classic livery that screamed "flag carrier" to a very budget looking livery. Mind you, with my one and only Iberia experience, the yarea flag carrier that acts like a budget carrier. In fact I've been on budget carriers that left me with a distinctly better impression than Iberia did. Edited August 22, 2023 by upnorth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Holden Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 Could have been worse.....I mean, it's not Lufthansa or Japan Air Lines 'bad', which are the current 'World Champion' benchmarks for awful.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like the Luft scheme. The Air India comes into the 'could be worse' category. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My thoughts exactly. The Lufthansa scheme is much better 'in the flesh' IMO, though it could have used a yellow stripe. Air India looks like a budget airline, but then so does everything these days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They obviously don't want to spend money with a design agency. They're probably having an 'in-joke' to see how bad they can make it....😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmatthewbacon Posted August 22, 2023 Share Posted August 22, 2023 I really don’t get what people have against the latest iteration of the Lufthansa livery… so it’s got no yellow in it? Big deal. So it doesn’t look like something from the 1960s? It’s 2023… I’m not surprised German designers have come up with a clean, minimal design. Who said “Less is more?” Or “Good design is as little design as possible?”… best, M. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel that colours are associated with the airlines and as much as possible should be retained despite the change in design. I can’t imagine if SIA drop the yellow colour for a new design. That will be horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 I hope it's a deeper and more 'mature' red on the real thing than the garish, orangey-red in that artwork 😕 looks like someone spilt a child's art palette over an old Kingfisher aircraft 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
