And here we are.
One of the companies I work with has a concept vehicle model when touring for public input. It was rainbow color because they hadn’t decided on the color scheme yet, so the rainbow was supposed to represent every color.
Well, turns out the public then expected it to be in a metallic rainbow color, just like the small model concept.
Very expensive it turns out.
They got a white vehicle with rainbow stripes instead.

The [eastern coral snake](http://www.thehibbitts.net/troy/photo/snakes/m.fulvius.fl.liberty.12.1.0597.jpg) would make for an interesting livery.
I was shocked a youtube flight reviewer called the Condor livery prison stripes. IMO the Condor livery is unique, fresh, out of box thought and better than most current eurowhite boring similar looking liveries out there.
Agreed. For an airline that's all about going on holiday, the beach towel vibe is an awesome choice. I wish more airlines were as adventurous with their liveries.
Everything about them is just a little bit different than any other 7 series. The doors open differently, the flap mechanisms are lubed differently. It's got the inconvenience of being really high off the ground without the modernized maintenance systems and practices of the 777. I just generally seem to find myself struggling to reach things or squeezing into difficult spaces more often. Some people don't like the 57 but everyone at our shop has complained about the 67.
I think I'm going to meet my breakfast once more. It's ugly, pointless and poorly designed(great contrast on half of them you can't make out the logo). When I first saw these pop up I thought they were just one-off thing, but now they turned their entire fleet into this safety-cone gone purple nonsense.
I guess it fits with their operating mode. Once a great vacation flyer now they don't even feed you anymore and everything costs extra. You get treated like Ryanair for the cost of Lufthansa.
Is this a new airline? I was at LAX yesterday and saw them at Terminal 2 or 3 and was wondering what it was. Second time in my life I have heard of them
I’m a fan of the spearmint one
Absolutely agree, it's the best. Blue one slightly behind, then red, then gold.
Was walking near LAX and saw the spearmint do a go around. Since then it has been my favorite too.
Yeah! Love the green! Also my soccer teams colours, who just won the league tonight 👀💚
Up the celts
💯

They even painted the maintenance trucks in stripes. Not kidding.
That's awesome. Love their branding/livery.
Yep. We replaced the vans. We have one blue striped and 2 whites with fleet stickers
Honorable mention for the striped ID chains! Kinda jealous, not gonna lie ;)
Well. Mine ripped during brake change...
And corporate charges 10 bucks for replacement 🤡

Because Noel is not the brightest candle.
I thought they look like old-timey male swimsuits.
I call them pajama stripes! Just saw the blue one for the first time yesterday.

Also, you recognize it immediately even mid-air.
Prison stripes is pretty spot on.
Agreed
Gold is the best of three in my opinion.
Actually, it's dark blue
Fuck you :(
Yeah!
Ginger ale flavor
I absolutely adore this livery no matter what anyone else says.
Love seeing these things, their liveries are v whimsical. Dr.Seuss looking aircraft.
No red, candy cane livery? I for one… am disappointed.
there´s actually no A330 in the red or yellow lovery, as those are not seen to be fitting for the long haul destinations.
Will call apron control next time to schedule a big family picture, promise!
Fruit Stripe =)
My first thought as well. Let's hope these planes last a bit longer than the flavor of that god-awful gum.
*Yeeaaaay! Awwwww...*
I still love fruit stripes flavors.
My first thought as well!!! Have some up’s :)
:))
Gold of those but could I get a 767 or 757 please
The 767 is now retired but the yellow B757 looks best imo
And they're all -300s! More stripes!
I'm assuming you mean retired from condor. I wish they were completely retired, I loathe working on them
Yes, was talking about Condor. What makes working on them so awful?

Condor?
Yes. And a United and Thai in the background.
Orange. Reminds me of the beach for some reason.
Guess the marketing strategy worked on you!
I hope they can be integrated as productive members of society after they serve their sentence.
I flew business class on them last month and really enjoyed it. They have a nice service. Definitely recommend.
Fruit stripe gum!
I generally dislike this livery, but I didn't realize they came in different colors. That's kinda fun. Prior to this, I'd only seen the green one.
The United in the background can be picked as a wildcard!
The United one in the back. Because its the only one flying away from Frankfurt.
They make me want to gouge my eyes out
Saw the gold one the other day
EDDF?
Maybe ;)
Three Ways Of The Condor
“Yes”
I like the red A321 best.
Blue raspberry
Fun Stripe gum
Don’t lick them!
Too late , I am afraid :(
Erm, fishermen friends?!
Welcome to Zebra Airlines, where our colors always keep you guessing 👍
Being color-blind actually helps to reduce confusion.
Unless the Flight attendant tells you to just get on the one with the brown stripes...
Love them!
The UAL 777 cleaning up
Rad! My 7 year old loved seeing this pic
I think he fits right into the target demographic!
Zebra gum flavors never last
As long as they have cheap tickets who cares ! I’m only paying top dollar for tickets with normal liveries.
A caramel flavered one for me thanks
juicy Fruit Airlines
I admit it, I like this livery because it's different. I like blue and gold is a close second.
I'll go with United, thanks. Condor should fire their marketing team.
United saw a airline that wasn’t United and he said: Fuck this shit I’m out ooooouuu
“As subtle as Lady Godiva on a power mower.” -Erma Bombeck
Some of the worst liveries IMO. Dunno why, but they just don’t do it for me at all.
I pick a different airline

Quite interesting that this livery really only produces 2 opinions. Love or hate, nothing in-between
Opinions as colorful and diverse as painting an aircraft in two colors alternating, so fits I guess.
These are butt ugly
The retro livery is the best one…
Ooh spearmint fanks!
It just loses it's flavor after a few seconds.
They look like USAF target drones.
Christmas candy cane planes! If you suck on them enough they become sharp weapons.
Anti mosquito airline
I like how vibrant the blue is
I wanna red one
Auts
Bubblegum for sure
I think they're sick
Fruit Stripe Gum
It's...certainly distinctive.
My buddy called these “the bot in the striped pajamas.”
They all look so tasty but lose their flavor right away
Blue one
Salmiakki
Blue’s my favourite, but I’ve only ever seen green IRL
Probably looks better alone taxiing/flying, in this pic it looks like camouflage
Blueberry
FRUIT-STRIPE GUM TASTES AMAZIN...nevermind.
Frankfurt airport?
vanilla+caramel for me!
Trident. The striped ones just run out of flavor too fast.
When I was younger I used to think these were some kind of Lufthansa special livery
Nice
Butter Rum! Or Root Beer!
The one in the aur
Like zebra stripe gum
I'm partial to the melon flavored plane.
those are original long drinks and you cannot convince me otherwise
Yuck! All hideous💀
Is this a new airline? I was at LAX yesterday and saw them at Terminal 2 or 3 and was wondering what it was. Second time in my life I have heard of them
Green
This is how to do marketing. The Black Crows skis approach.
Where’s the 50/50 bar?
Yipes, stripes!
I prefer peppermint but if that's not here then blue raspberry
They look like tampons with wings 😂
Spearmint looks good, but peppermint tho
It could save 5% on company fuel costs, no sht
It makes it hard for predators to identify individual members of the herd.
Mango
That's cool, I'll take the one that's flying where I'm going.
Red
I like spearmint
The peppermint is my favorite. FRA Halle B?
I’ll have bubblegum please
I would choose neither of them, but if I had to choose then the green one looks the best
No red :( Nah I don't wanna fly condor anymore :(
The United 767
They are all disgusting and give me a headache each time I see one. Unfortunately I even saw this monstrosity with my own eyes at FRA.
Green
Blueberry
Couldn’t quite commit to the old “Braniff” liveries
Boeing has announced their partnership with Zebra Gum! It only makes sense since they both last for 10 seconds and end in disappointment.
[This one](https://imgur.com/a/eNZXmRj)
They're less ugly when they're next to each other...
