Qatar Airways welcomed a nostalgic flashback to its early days of operation with the delivery of a Boeing 777-300ER aircraft painted in the airline’s retro livery design as part of its 25th anniversary celebrations.
The aircraft made its retro livery debut operating as Flight QR 0041 from Hamad International Airport (HIA), Doha, to Charles de Gaulle Airport, Paris, and will become a familiar sight on a variety of other Qatar Airways routes over the coming 12 months, celebrating 25 years of excellence for the award-winning airline during its milestone year.
Qatar Airways Group Chief Executive, His Excellency Mr. Akbar Al Baker, said: “We are tremendously excited to celebrate our 25th anniversary by introducing this unique aircraft to our fleet. We hope this retro design will bring many memories of travel to our passengers, especially those who experienced travelling with us in our early years. This livery marks the milestone of how far we have come as the national carrier, evolving into a six-time World’s Best Airline winner.
“We will continue to shine and share our success with those who are at the heart of everything we do – our millions of loyal passengers around the globe.”
