First glimpse of Air India aircraft after logo and design makeovers

Tata Group-owned Air India on Saturday unveiled the first look of its freshly painted A350 aircraft, aligning with its updated livery introduced earlier this year featuring a new red-purple-gold color scheme and the new logo 'The Vista'.

The latest pictures are from Air India’s workshop in Toulouse, France.

“Here's the first look of the majestic A350 in our new livery at the paint shop in Toulouse. Our A350s start coming home this winter,” said Air India on social media platform X.



Air India in August unveiled its new logo which signifies limitless possibilities. The Tata-owned airline worked on the new logo for as many as 15 months.

"It is inspired by the peak of the gold window frame, signifying limitless possibilities, progressiveness, and the airline’s bold, confident outlook for the future," the company had said in a press release.

The new logo is inspired by the classic and iconic Indian window shape, historically used by Air India, which the airline believes is symbolic to 'Window of Opportunities'.

In recent months, Air India placed an historic order for 470 aircraft and announced massive outlays for refurbishing existing aircraft and IT upgrade.

The airline aims to fly an entirely new long haul fleet by the end of 2026.

There will also be a phased launch of new Air India website, mobile app, loyalty programme and refitted interiors.
