Etihad Airways has used the completion of its first Airbus A380 aircraft to unveil a new livery.
Keen eyed spotters had been speculating for weeks as the airline’s first superjumbo was seen being tested with strange colours on the tail.
Now, all is clear as the airline presents its ‘Facets of Abu Dhabi’ scheme at the Airbus Hamburg facility.
The new design uses a colour palette which reflects the varying hues of the landscape of the UAE, from the darker sands of the Liwa desert to the lighter colours seen in the Northern Emirates. The result of extensive research, the design will also be a key feature of the new cabin interiors being introduced on Etihad Airways’ Airbus A380 aircraft.
The entire Etihad Airways fleet of more than 100 aircraft, as well as those to be delivered, will be painted in the new livery during the next three years ensuring that the Facets of Abu Dhabi is seen across the world.
