The stars have aligned on a brand new Airbus A321neo for Air New Zealand! The aircraft, registration ZK-OYB, features the world’s first black Star Alliance aircraft livery.
All member airlines include Star Alliance liveries in their fleets. While they’re typically white, the team at Air New Zealand asked if they could switch it up a bit because of the significance of the colour black to the ANZ brand. The carrier based in Auckland first introduced black liveries to the fleet in 2012 with a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, moving away from the globally recognised teal colours that had become a trade mark for stability and reliability.
ZK-OYB will be one of three A321neos to join the fleet in the coming months and will be in service just in time to help get customers to where they need to be in time for the busy Christmas and holiday period.
