Aer Lingus Livery

Hi all!

Just seen this pic on a.net….

http://www.airliners.net/open.file/0332183/L/

My question is….was this livery a one off to promote their website, or were there plans to introduce it to the whole fleet only for them to be dropped.

Thanks for any infos!!
Rich 😉

Red, are you sure ???

As I recall it there were two in blue and two in green ? A 735 and 734 in each colour scheme. The exact shades of green and blue could be found within the mainline Lingus livery…

Remember that one we saw thump down on the rwy at GLA? I can still see those wings flexing downward!

Thanks tenthije….do you know if there were plans to introduce it too the whole fleet and if not….why they did it at all??

No, it was a simple promotional exercise to draw attention to their website, which is also featured less promenintly on the side of the regular fleet.

Here’s a few shots of the ones I managed to snap at either GLA or DUB and one of the regular 737’s with the website on the side…

Actually not a one-off but a three-off. There was also a 737 in red and another in blue.
