Austrian Airlines Launches Updated, Modern Branding And Livery
Forbes

Austria’s flag carrier Austrian Airlines launched updated brand language and a new livery for its fleet of aircraft this week. The moves are apparently centered around helping the airline better participate in the digital age. Austrian’s trademark logo, seen below rendered onto an aircraft, will be adjusted to better fit on mobile screens while the wordmark is also being modernized to appeal to a younger audience.

“Digitalization is changing our lives. Our products, our brand and our company are also making themselves fit for the digital future. The realignment of our branding is another important step in this direction,” said Andreas Otto, Member of the Management Board and CCO of Austrian Airlines in a release.

And shortly after missing on newtravel, I began covering Bulgaria for Lonely Planet. Its 19th-century revivalist architecture, cheap local wines sold from empty jugs on street corners, and quiet roads crisscrossing mountains immediately wooed me.
