Question

And how much did they pay the branding house for such a ****ing imaginative idea?

Obviously, the airline industry has not moved forward over the last sixty years.....we're still sporting nationalistic names and colour schemes (with the notable exception of, e.g. Virgin, Cathay Pacific and Ryanair).

Well, I like it.

The logo might also work for swiss army chockolate bars.......

Nevertheless, at least some planes keep on flying for a while and secure many jobs and families within Switzerland.

Thumbs down

Think they look way too conventional for an airline claiming to be the new extra innovative high quality carrier.

“Swiss One” cleared for T/O

Just witnessed the virgin flight of the new “Swiss” air lines a A320 to Basel at 10:30 UTC. IMHO the logo could have bee better but none the less I wish you all the very best and success.. .Cheers

Red face

Just visited their new homepage at <a href="http://www.fly-swiss.com" target="_blank">www.fly-swiss.com</a>

Can't believe how unpolished the (English language) message from the CEO is. He even signs off as "Mr. Andre Dose". Looks like they can't or don't want to afford professional script writers....

Hope their financials are in better shape.
