number 10 northwest airlines northwest airlines was founded in 1926 and existed up until 2008
where it merged with delta the northwest airlines logo has several hidden meanings one of which
uses negative space which is an artistic concept of using space around and between a subject to
create another image northwest used this idea when combining the n and w in their logo in addition
the triangle in the top left corner of the logo points to northwest there is also a resemblance
of this within the delta logo viewed from the captain's side the widget points northwest in
honor of northwest airlines this particular feature could have been thought up by richard
anderson who was ceo at northwest airlines prior to being at delta and joining the two companies
together now let's get to number nine that features a not so popular airline but be sure that
their logo will definitely surprise you number nine libyan arab airlines libyan arab airlines is
libya's flag carrier and is not very famous but they have a rich and tainted history and their
logo has such a deep meaning that it cannot go unnoticed it was created by kamal hassan al-jalani
in 1964 and has been established to represent the most important part of libya's culture
the top pattern with some sort of horns symbolizes the amatricus levia or wadden
in the berber language a species of deer found in parts of libya that is known for its strength
the two parallel arrows symbolize speed and time the one that is slightly ahead embodies
speed and relates to the company's commitment in bringing passengers at destination on time
the golden circle encompassing the logo represents the desert that hides libya's
most precious wealth and resources the brown color of the logo symbolizes the rich soil of
libya used to grow crops and feed the country libyan arab air lines is banned from flying
in the european union so it is very unlikely that you will see any of their aircraft around
number eight china southern airlines the same stylized red flower has remained consistent
in all of china's southern airlines logos dating back to 1988. the k-pop flower is what we see on
the logo and it has a deep meaning to some people in china mayans believe the k-pop tree is a sacred
tree and the souls of the deceased can only reach heaven through the highest branches of the tree
predominantly the southern chinese believe that the k-pop flower signifies a turning point in the
trajectory of their lives this is an antidote to the chaotic nature of our world and to the
stress of flying the k-pop flower gives us a chance to reset and make positive changes
the next one has a kind of logo that you've probably never even seen number 7 png air
new guinea's regional carrier rebranded their fleet in 2015 and unveiled a new livery and logo
their new logo features a bold white background with traditional and tribal art scribed in black
red and yellow this art has been part of papua new guinea's culture for centuries it features
mostly faces made from abstract shapes that give it a unique and peculiar look
animals can be vaguely made out as well but it's the idea that everything is open to interpretation
which makes this logo truly amazing this new logo symbolizes the country its people and the brands
promised to serve its people the company prides itself on being a brand that connects people
number six lot polish airlines established in 1928 this historic airline is one of the oldest
around and is also the national carrier of poland the world-renowned crane portion of the logo was
designed by the visual artist teduc granowski and was picked as the winning entry of the airline's
logo design competition the crane can be seen in flight with its wing tips beak and tail
barely touching the circle this design gives the logo style and finesse whilst maintaining a modern
and uncluttered shape gronowski was a master at simplifying objects whilst injecting rhythm
and movement into his shapes the logo has since become an integral part of the airline's brand and
identity plans to modernize the infamous logo were met with outrage from enthusiasts and staff alike
number 5 nepal airlines nepal airlines has been nepal's flag carrier since 1958
and operates out of kathmandu originally the airline was called royal nepal airlines and
it had a bland and outdated logo which has been changed to a more modern one
their new logo incorporates akash bharab who is the hindu god of sky protection or the sky god
several large statues in kathmandu are dedicated to akash barab he is known in the hindu religion
for having a large blue head with a fierce face huge silver eyes and a crown of skulls and
serpents the logo also incorporates the national colors of nepal with the crimson red to reflect
the brave spirit of the nepalese people and the stunning blue that symbolizes peace and harmony
number four american airlines american airlines logos have always featured an american eagle since
it began in 1934. at first glance their new logo appears to have dropped the trend however upon
closer inspection the logo designers have used negative space to perfection illustrating an a
and an eagle the logo uses shading and gradient to add a 3d feel to the design the reason for
the change is that the brand was suffering from both public reputation and financial difficulties
a rebrand was needed to help bring the airline up to speed with modern design and expectations
american airlines say the logo resembles the most american of ideals progress this shows that
they have moved away from their past of being voted most hated travel company by many users
number three quantas kangaroos are very closely associated with australia they are unique to the
island and give it a form of identity quantus first used the kangaroo on its logo in 1944
and three years later the kangaroo was given its wings since 1944 quantas have slowly
removed details from the kangaroo such as facial features and arms in its most recent renovation
some argue that qantas are losing their identity as the airline of australia by making their most
recent logo more abstract others would argue that they're merely keeping up with the times
and trends the new logo is more streamlined and uses a slimmer font this was done to make their
new generation of boeing 787 aircraft more appealing to the modern travelers
number 2 aero mexico the eagle knight emblem featuring in the aero mexico fleet is inspired
by the ancient culture of country infantry soldiers in the aztec army were known as eagle
knights that represent strength aggressiveness and competitiveness among the eagle knight ranks
were the bravest fighters who had taken most prisoners in war making them the most feared
warriors in the aztec empire the eagle knight has a strong cultural influence on mexicans for being
the best warriors and aeromexico promises to be the best airline as well in 1998 the
feathers were removed and replaced with lines that give the logo a flow and feeling of motion
the eagle knight has always occupied the aeromexico logo from the very birth of the
company which signifies its predominance and importance and here we go for our number one
airline logo with a hidden meaning if you have enjoyed the video so far make sure to
hit the like button and subscribe to my channel if you haven't done that so far number one neos
neos was brought to fruition in 2001 as a joint venture between two tourism companies
spa and tui the logo uses negative space to show an aircraft in the silhouette of a red bird
this is significant as the aircraft appears to look more like an airbus a320 than a boeing
aircraft which neos operates and usually has more pointy noses
it looks a bit weird as the neos fleet solely consists of boeing 737 and 787 aircraft
the red bird on the neos logo is unspecified however it is likely to be the italian sparrow
because of its distinct two-pronged tail and this bird happens to be the national bird of italy
the neos livery is mainly light blue to symbolize the sky which the red bird flies upon
