Ultimately all of them will be painted, I was wondering why Queen was the first.
There's way more estate on the 380 as well so logic doesn't apply much here.

I was actually serious in my first reply... the 747 is regarded as the more beautiful and representative aircraft by Lufthansa. That's why they use it in ads and for example for the return of the German national team after the world cup win. And let's face it... while the A380 is impressive, fascinating and the designated flagship simply because it's their biggest aircraft, it doesn't even come close to the 747 from an aesthetic point of view.

I have no doubt the yellow will reappear somewhere in the near future as I'm sure there's a ton of internal objection to the loss. I predict either the crane and circle but only the outline this time. This small change would seem very doable even after much of the fleet is re-painted.

They aren't going to waste the money changing the livery again just to appease the employees. If they don't like it, they can hit the bricks.

I wouldn't rule it out, American Airlines held a staff vote after the 2013 livery release, such was the backlash and lest we forget how strongly the German public felt about the post Thomas Cook rebranding of Condor.

That was a weird vote, and the AA mixed with the new scheme looked and acted horrendous. This is why you let pilots fly the airplane, why you let mechanics work on the airplane, and why you let brand/insights people decorate the airplane without any real mixing of the roles; I would be concerned if I boarded a plane and an airline's CMO told me he would be flying the flight without any formal training. Without getting into a flame war here, CO/UA showed us what happens when you let accountants and lawyers dictate brand. UA has since had to build everything else around it.

As for why 747-8? If maintenance check isn't the primary reason, my best guess is that LH "owns" the 747-8, much like EK owns the A380. LH has always promoted the 747-8i heavily, and D-ABYA specifically has always been a featured aircraft as it was the first delivery of the type. Had there been an A350 ready for delivery that may have been it, but LH may have realized, perhaps from these forums, that newly-built aircraft are probably the worst way to hide a new scheme.

I usually like clean, modern European design but I think the new livery is just bland. I don’t agree that yellow is unprofessional. Blue is overused in the airline industry and blue AND yellow is what sets LH apart. I like the rest of the branding effort, but the livery falls short.

I think the back portion of the fuselage, below the tail (the portion painted blue)should be yellow.

Here’s my rough mock up... color is off.

Lufthansa's new and probably short lived livery makes United Airlines CO, and DL's livery look exciting and fresh.

Even this has more creativity than what the highly paid marketing team came up with.

I think once the team discovered the consumer “insight” that yellow doesn’t evoke the emotional response the brand aspires to be, someone said, “Remove the yellow from the livery”... then another team member said, “Now it’s too white”... a third said, “Extend the blue of the tail and it won’t look too white”... and a fourth team member exclaimed, “Brilliant!” And thus the new livery was born. Of course English-only speakers in the hallway who overheard the German speaking team thought they were yelling at each other.

I don't get it. Exciting? Do you sit on the wing when you travel and marvel at the artistic beauty and creation of the design team?
All it is there for is for you recognize it and unless you can't see the logo on the dark tail then you know what it is.
Remember, "like" is subjective and I get that part but I'm not sure what people want from a livery of a airplane lol.

And that thing with the yellow fuselage... LOL. Seriously? That's not even ugly. That's two different birds glued together.

Same thing was being said when B called the 787 "Dreamliner". Oh boy the internet exploded with likes of "dumbest name and idea ever".
Well guess what. None of the people I know is interested in airplanes. None. They use them to travel. When I ask what they flew with they have no idea UNLESS it was the Dreamliner. That they always know because it is a catchy name and easy to remember.

The livery is not there to make you giddy about it, it is to present a product/brand and when I'm showing some of those non airline geeks that I know both pictures for the past two days it's a unanimous win for the new one. So simple conclusion about a.net is that people get attached personally to brands which clouds their judgment on the real reasons why those birds get painted in the first place. Most people don't give it even a second thought. They have better things to care/worry about than if the new livery is "exciting" or not. they might care about food, seat comfort, lavatory and all kind of things that make or break comfortable travel but being stressed about a COLOR of a airplane you can't even see is only reserved to ultra geeks.

So, it seems that in the end the livery will indeed feature the "LH yellow", in the title font, correct? Or was this just some one-time gimmick for the unveiling?

There are forum readers who have a love for airplanes and for some the livery is an important part of that. There are also people who have a love of airline branding and the livery is an important part of that.

Lol I don’t need meds. I’m just fine.
And while livery being important makes sense but literally calling people / brand / designers names, plotting union strikes and crap like that just cause somebody doesn’t like it it is not. If people can do that so can I for whatever reason I choose to thank you very much for your concern.

It seems as if they are projecting text and other graphics onto the aircraft. If you look through instagram with the tag #explorethenew, you can see many photos of different text in yellow on the side of the fuselage, as well as some pics of the first A321 in new colors, D-AISP

No thanks. Either you choose to use yellow on every logo on the aircraft or you don't use it on any logo.

Using a mix of different colours on the same logos in various locations is exactly what they wanted to avoid as explained in a video posted earlier. They even referred to the different looks of the same logo collected at one page as the "wall of shame".

You are right.

Is the light on the tail? The crane logo on the tail looks illuminated which is kind of cool. Is this just the photo or was a special paint used so that it would look like its glowing in low light?

The crane seems backlit, but it’s just because of the normal tail light. Here’s a second photo of the A321 at Ostrava posted by Aeronews last night: https://twitter.com/aeronewsro/status/9 ... 4976049152

Out of curiosity, what has been the reaction in Germany now that it's officially been launched? And in the airline itself? There must be a lot of LH staff in here. Another plus for the new look is the dropping of the website name from the rear of the fuselage. It only cheapened the look, and was completely unnecessary in this day and age.

seahawk · Thu Feb 08, 2018 7:50 am

The livery is considered boring, but the overall re-branding is seen as positive. I do not know the reaction to the new uniform, but so far I have not heard anything negative about it either.

The livery may be boring (the lack of yellow disappointed me), but it grew up on me since it looked well-done, despite of that little detail. I've seen their uniform, and it looks amazing. Overall, LH's re-branding ended up being better than I expected.

seahawk · Thu Feb 08, 2018 8:16 am

I must say I like the new livery in the dark. When the light illuminates the crane it really shines.

Braybuddy · Thu Feb 08, 2018 8:35 am

The key to this new livery is in how well it's kept. As long as it's not allowed to get dull or dirty it will continue to look smart and sharp. Lufthansa will have no problem in carrying this off at all.

ro1960 · Thu Feb 08, 2018 9:04 am

I can help but compare this new livery to that of UTA. Except UTA had really bold letters and a nice touch with the green doors. Maybe LH should add a similar touch to make it less bland.

I think that once again you are all missing the point. The highly paid marketing team's brand does not start with designing the aircraft livery, it finishes with it. That's after they apply the design to the check-ins, ground services, lounges, in-flight items, uniforms etc. As I have said before the actual aircraft livery is only about 5% of the travelling public's perception of an airline.

I think once the team discovered the consumer “insight” that yellow doesn’t evoke the emotional response the brand aspires to be, someone said, “Remove the yellow from the livery”... then another team member said, “Now it’s too white”... a third said, “Extend the blue of the tail and it won’t look too white”... and a fourth team member exclaimed, “Brilliant!” And thus the new livery was born.

trijetsonly · Thu Feb 08, 2018 9:49 am

There's a presentation video in the Lufthansa Intranet about the developement of the new livery.
In that video they also show other livery drafts that have been considered but disregarded. Many of the drafts from this very forum thread are shown there and obviously lost against the final livery.
Maybe the video will be made public by LH.

Part of that wall of drafts can be seen here on this video from explorethenew.com:

Aviaphile · Thu Feb 08, 2018 10:10 am

Changes are very often difficult to accept on first sight. The more one looks at a new livery such as this, the more acceptable it becomes as the initial shock wears off. I couldn't get my head round the A350's nose when it first came out but now I'm used to it and like it. I do feel that the new Lufthansa livery is extremely stark, for want of a better expression, stark and monochromatic and therefore dull. I disagree that it's very modern. Continuing the colour from the tail down round the rear fuselage has been featured in many other colour schemes before, as many observers here have pointed out so it is hardly something new. But you can't please all the people all of the time so we'll just have to get used to it!

Thanks for posting this. it is again a convincing video which also shows that when it comes to the new livery they seem to have worked through dozens of possible new liveries. Combined with the whole new branding appearance the chosen livery is very appropriate and I sure they will achieve their goals they have set with it.

intotheair · Thu Feb 08, 2018 10:26 am

After watching the 15 minute video explaining the design process, I'm starting to get on board with the whole thing. Reducing the yellow to an accent color while strengthening the crane application makes sense, and I can't wait to see all the different ways they'll use the yellow.

The only thing I didn't hear a good explanation for was the spill of the navy onto the fuselage. That still feels odd to me.

Sorry to be so blunt but you have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. Redesigning the visual identity of a brand is time-consuming and complex. It's a whole strategy that translates to every single thing that is owned by the airline, in the real and the digital world. And no, you can't come up with that in 30 minutes. Just because it looks simple to you, doesn't mean that it actually is.

It's ok if you don't like it, but that's what they came up with and we'll see how it plays out... Us humans are just uncomfortable with change, so give it some time. You'll be surprised how quickly people will stop missing the egg yolk or the grey underbelly...

Hello Otto,
Mmm, no. Not really. I think that change is generally good.
You are right - I do know that the redesigning of the visual identity is a HUGE and complex job. I know quite a bit myself of corporate design. Hence why I am saying that the end result -THE LIVERY itself (which should be the crucial part of the job accomplished) is very unimaginative. I don't get the celebratory tone for a design that is uninspiring at best.
Not the rest of the job. The "accents" are nice. It's just that I am unsure of how they will control their "exposure" throughout the journey at locations that are not FRA or MUC. And I am serious. And I am fine with those ever so publicized yellow boarding cards. Or the CEO's yellow socks. . :-)

I am just an civil airline industry geek. and must say... sorry guys, I must repeat it. The more I see the new livery, the more I love it.
The previous one it seemed old since the 90s when I first saw it. From my personal point of view it never was appealing.
FB page and website updates look good as previously. I mean, on website and FB to me it does not make much difference yellow or blue since I consider Lufthansa a great brand regardless of the colours they use.

...I look forward to new models for my collections!

Too bad they didn't intro the livery on the A380. In my opinion, due to the massive tail, the design actually looks better than on the 747. As much as I love the A380, I never expected to be calling it better looking.

The blue in the firts pic is much lighter than the blue actually used, for some reason. The darker blue is smarter and looks much better IMHO: the livery has an understated beauty and simplicity which is perfect for the brand, giving that they want to take it upmarket. The more I see it the more I like it.

na · Thu Feb 08, 2018 3:00 pm

Having seen D-ABYA in person I must say that there are several details I like about the new livery:
1. all-white wings: unique among airlines, and it will make LH planes even more recognizable from the ground than the "Spiegelei" did. I never understood why airlines do not treat the wings as part of the livery. Its great LH does so and it really underlines the airlines well-founded premium approach perfectly!
2. the new blue is a very classy shade.
3. the white leading edge of the tailfin with the smart curve at the top.
4. the new font/titles. Subtle, timeless, yet efficient and modern evolution of the ages-old Helvetica.

Its these fine details which make a classy livery out of a basically unexciting design. I am usually not a big fan of overly simple liveries, and I dislike JAL and especially China Eastern who have no such smart details at all in their designs.

The old livery now appears indeed old to me. I only still miss a bit of yellow somewhere.
Imho, overall the LH redesign has been very well executed.

Come on. Just admit that you were wrong.

The new livery is indeed an improvement on the A380 in my opinion and the livery itself is starting to grow on me I have to say. This livery is timeless more so than the current one.

I noticed the wings and wondered if they were really white or if it was just the lighting.
I think the white wings are a great touch. Looking forward to seeing new livery in person
