Korean Air Unveils New Livery: Modern, Blue, And Boring?

Recently, Korean Air’s takeover of Asiana was finalized, after a process that spanned over four years, due to delayed regulatory approval. We’ve had reason to believe that the airline would introduce a new livery for the combined carrier, and that has now been revealed.

Korean Air’s new and very blue livery

While an official announcement is expected shortly, pictures are emerging on social media of Korean Air’s very first aircraft in the new livery. Specifically, this has been painted on the less than one-year-old Boeing 787-10 with the registration code HL8515.

On February 23, 2025, the plane flew from Incheon (ICN) to Busan (PUS), and then on March 9, 2025, it returned to Incheon, after getting a fresh coat of paint. For context, below is what Korean Air’s previous livery looked like.
