I think the solid yellow color is good. My problem is with the hip, faddish, sketchy font and "bare fare" on the cowling. No class in the design. Affordability doesn't have to be without a touch of class.
This design is appropriate for a website that can be updated with a few keystrokes - but an entire fleet livery? Bad move.
The design team should have been fired or sent back to the drawing board - this will look so dated in 3 or 4 years.
And all you guys who say you like it - your comments are qualified with terms like " You know what... I like it " " It gets the job done " etc. No one on here has said: "This is freakin' awesome!" Why? Cause it's awful.

Marketing did exactly what it was intended to do: get people talking about it. Whether someone likes it or not is irrelevant. With social media, we will be on every passenger newsfeed across the country and beyond. It's the old Benetton marketing strategy. Well played.

. Oh yeah I love the new paint job, I hated the current one when it came out as it was so far from the class of the "silver jet". The yellow though, it fits with the theme and I guarantee even on a dull dreary day with a low overcast it will be a standout. The livery, along with other airlines mentioned, reminds me of Yellow Air Taxi that used to be based in FLL using Cessna 402s.
