New Icelandair livery for 2022

They're going for a new uniform look across the board, bringing the entire fleet within one livery with minor colour flash variations on the rear fuselage. I think it's ok, if a bit Ryanair like, especially on the 737 fleet.

Looks quite smart, good clean lines and high contrast in the colours. Hopefully something will come out the paintshop soon sporting the new look. Intersting to see the line-up artwork is on 757s rather than the Max.

I gather the 757 special paint jobs will remain until retirement and the rest of the fleet it is not guaranteed to make it into new livery either.

I rather suspect the 757s will be around for a while yet, as they cut the Max order from 16 to 12 back in August 2020. Only 3 remain to be delivered ( 1x -9, 2 x -8).

Until 2025 I think ?

Not blown away, if I'm being honest... a little low cost look about it.... but that's just me.

Personally I think it's an improvement over the current 737 variation of the blue/yellow livery, and almost as smart as the 757/767 scheme. Looking forward to seeing the different trim colours.

I think it will be like the Lufthansa livery, people don't like it when it comes out, but it will grow on them over time.
