They're fixing it. Phew! Now I'm excited to get the model . The real thing is beginning to look closer to the model artwork announcements
Otherwise it would have been a fantasy.

And the buzz about B-LJA is pretty exciting. Looks fab stripped down to bare metal already. Let's hope

What was the delay exactly?

They'd messed up the livery at the front section and the shade of green

I don’t know. It’s good but maybe a downgrade imo.

Very very nice at Milan MXP Airport

Agreed. Previous livery looked better. The waving flag effect on the tail was beautiful and the blue color had more area.
The smaller titles also looked better to me. They could be a bit enlarged but Billboarding them don't look that nice...

Just not too excited with this recent 'let's put billboard titles with flat colours and YAY we're done'

Air India, Icelandair, Transavia, Korean, LOT amongst others
now Luxair

small titles with tasteful Eurowhite tail is way better than these

 

[Charter]

I must say that i like billboard titles in the fuselage because It is a sign of identity and a kind of love for the airline name and nationality. But the flag on the Luxair previous livery was better because It had more "apparent movement" respect the static flag on the new livery.
