To celebrate its sponsorship for the New Zealand All Blacks,

Air New Zealand turned one of its planes quite literally all black,

with the trademark silver fern logo painted at the end of the plane.

Since 2011 they have six planes painted black which are still

in service today.

Yes we know, it’s not a plane, it’s a Concorde! Often seen as a huge

feat in modern aviation, the Concorde hasn’t been short of

amazing paint jobs. In 1996 Pepsi went through a re-brand and

teamed up with Air France to promote themselves. The entire

Concorde was painted blue and proudly showed off the new

Pepsi logo until it was changed in 2003.

heritage by painting its planes in traditional Aboriginal art.

The first plane was painted in 1994 and 3 more have been painted since.

A team of Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal artists helped to create its

extremely colourful designs.

Delta Airlines showed its support for the Breast Cancer Research

Foundation by painting its planes pink. The first plane was

painted in 2005 and the ribbon logo is located near the front of the plane.

Their support doesn’t just stop there, employees also wear

pink uniforms and sell pink products including pink lemonade

and pink headsets on-board.

To promote the London 2012 Olympics, British Airways held a contest

to design one of its planes for the special event. Out of the many entries

submitted, this was the winning design. It took 39 days to paint the

Olympic dove. Golden feathers are decorated around the plane and

even the jet engines are decorated gold. The logo, which is

traditionally red and blue, is also painted gold.

In a bid to help the declining tourism industry in Taiwan, Eva Air

teamed up with Hello Kitty to promote air travel. Many of the

cute felines decorate not just the outsides of the plane but even plane

seats, boarding cards, check in desks, uniforms and food. Yes that’s

right, this plane even serves food designed and cut out to look like

Hello Kitty characters.

Formula 1 which are red, black and white with the tail painted to look like

a chequered flag.
