Royal Jordanian unveils retro-livery

To celebrate its 100th birthday, Royal Jordanian Airlines has unveiled a special retro-livery, featuring the Alia Royal Jordanian-livery. The aircraft in question is JY-AYV (5177), which was presented to the world on 14 November. Its first commercial flight was on 15 November, flying as RJ111 to London-Heathrow.

Alia was launched in 1963 and the name came from King Hussein's eldest child, Princess Alia. In 1986 it was rebranded into Royal Jordanian, dropping Alia from the brand.
