PIA rebrands itself with a new logo and color scheme and the aircraft look stunningly beautiful now

RAWALPINDI – Pakistan International Airlines (PIA) has officially introduced a new livery on its aircraft after retaining the old design for almost ten years.

An artistic insignia of Pakistan’s national animal Markhor (Ibex) will be printed on national flag carrier aircraft’s tail and engine.

“This is the first brand change in 10 years. Markhor is our national animal which can be found in the mountainous regions of Pakistan,” said PIA spokesperson Mashood Tajwar.
