Was looking through some photos and whilst I’ve always thought the SQ livery looked understated and classy, today it struck me as being a bit… stale.

Which airline liveries do you think are most in need of a refresh?

Personally I’d suggest:
1. ZL
2. SQ
3. CA

Then there’s the whole question of LH who took an iconic livery and it refreshed it to be… insipid.

Whoever was responsible for dropping the yellow from LH should be sent to jail imho. On the flip side, while many like to ridicule Qantas for making ever so tiny changes to their livery and font from decade to decade, I would in hindsight argue that it actually has kept the livery fresh and contemporary.

Who else needs an update? KLM comes to mind though please don‘t drop this colour. Quite a few of the Chinese carriers look stale and old- a bit of an update wouldn’t harm most of them.
