jahur 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2013 MAS looks pissed again. Apparently they are aware that few photos have been leaked out few days earlier. From the looks of it they are distributing a Memorandum to all staff to keep mum about OneWorld until 31 January 2013. <_> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 (edited) Two mistakes I noted, Naz stated oneworld is the largest alliance in the world. Correction: It is Star Alliance. Secondly, MH is still confused on which logo to use. The all blue 'malaysiaairines' is used on the repainted A330 and B738 during the ceremony just now, but all marketing materials still have the red-blue wau. Anyhow congratulation on the achievement, MH!! The wait is finally over! Edited January 31, 2013 by JuliusWong Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mohd Suhaimi Fariz 2 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 Actually the blue wau is just for the A380 to show that it's the flagship. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johan Z 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 Blue livery is only for A380. The way it's going right now is all the Malaysia Airlines title will follow as on the their website. I guess A330 and 738 will spot swoosh with new font and red/blue tail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
