The Koru represents a native fern, which unfurls at some point in its life cycle into the sun. Hence, the koru represents ‘opening up to new frontiers’, I suppose one would say to put it in an aviation context. I’m less sure about the origins of the Teal Blue colour, but it might have something to do with the fact that ANZ’s predecessor was called TEAL (Tasman Empire Airways Ltd). It is very New Zealand, but as people have said, one would have to be a New Zealander to know that.

How prominent is the ‘To Fly, To Serve’ logo on BA’s aircraft right now? That was an inspired advertising campaign in my view.
