Carrier's rebranding exercise to build greater affinity with customers


By Karamjit Kaur, Aviation Correspondent
LOW-COST carrier Tiger Airways is giving up its orange and black stripes - but not its roar.
The airline will keep its name but drop the pouncing tiger icon from its aircraft body and other marketing materials as part of a major rebranding exercise.

A Tiger spokesman declined to comment when contacted but The Straits Times understands that a big-bang relaunch is planned in the coming weeks.

It is not clear if the change will include a new look for cabin crew, who now don yellow and black uniforms with striped scarves.
