Industry Update UNITED & CONTINENTAL
LSG SKYCHEFS & AIR CANADA QANTAS
New global airline
United and Continental have revealed refinements to the visual branding for the new global airline that will result from the merger between the two carriers. The new logo displays the combined company’s
brand name in capital letters (UNITED) in a custom sans-serif font, joined with the global mark that has represented Continental’s brand image since 1991. A corresponding update of the combined airline’s aircraft livery will adopt Continental’s livery, colours and design, including its blue-gold-white globe image on the tail, combined with the new-style name on the fuselage.
