Riyadh Air’s Very First Indigo Livery Nears Delivery | aviationbizz.com
Riyadh Air today shared the first images of its maiden indigo-colored Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner as it emerged from Boeing’s paint facility in Charleston, South Carolina, USA.
Inspired by spring desert blooms and Arabic calligraphy, the striking indigo-and-lavender design complements Riyadh Air’s pearlescent white livery. It is anticipated that every tenth aircraft in the Riyadh Air fleet will feature the indigo livery, creating a distinctive marker of the airline’s growth. The aircraft will be delivered in the near future and will soon be visible at one of the 15 global airports served by the airline.
Tony Douglas, CEO of Riyadh Air, said: “Seeing our first Indigo aircraft emerge from the paint shop is a proud moment for Riyadh Air. Inspired by the colors of spring desert blooms and the beauty of Arabic calligraphy, the indigo livery positions our brand with a striking presence that will stand out at airports across the world. Alongside our pearlescent livery, it reflects a modern, confident Saudi identity, and marks another significant milestone as we have grown to 10 aircraft and 15 destinations in less than four months.”
