It is also a new livery for Croatia Airlines
The Croatia Airlines livery which looks so much like the new Brussels Airlines livery is also relatively new.
Croatia Airlines applied it to its fleet between 2019 and 2020 to visually refresh the existing livery, which had fewer squares on the tail and had the entire underbelly of the aircraft painted blue. The pre-2019 livery is shown below.
The other difference is that the word “Croatia” is now bigger than it was in the old livery.
Brussels Airlines unveiled its new identity in November
In November, Brussels Airlines presented its new logo, new livery and new color scheme to reaffirm its identity as Belgium’s flag carrier.
The lower case “b” on the tail of the aircraft has disappeared and has been replaced by dots. The tail now features different bubble sizes in a deeper red, blue, and gray pattern, with more bubbles across the fuselage.
The airline’s new logo now features nine red dots of varying sizes, and the aim is to represent diversity within the airline.
