Taiwan’s major carrier, the China Airlines (CAL), is expected to take delivery of all of the new A350-900XWB aircraft it has ordered from Airbus by the end of October, the airlines said in a press release on Friday.
According to the airlines, it has partnered with Airbus to include both companies in the aircraft livery of the 14th and final A350 (Aircraft No. B-18918).
“The elegant design will be in the public eye by winter this year when the joint liveried aircraft will be put into service,” CAL said.
The joint livery will feature China Airlines’ blue corporate identity colors interwoven with Airbus’ classic carbon-fiber pattern at the tail of the aircraft, it said.
The combination of high-tech style together with the beauty of traditional weaving symbolizes the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures, the airlines said, adding the vertical stabilizer will also be painted with the progressive hues of the “Red Plum Blossom.”
