Loganair flying high with image makeover

0 Mark Holman and Tracy Harrison are among the 300 or so employees to receive new uniforms Loganair has unveiled a new look for its aircraft and staff uniforms after reporting an 18 per cent year-on-year boost in passenger figures during July.

The carrier has adopted the image, which features tartan extensively, as it begins flying under its own name once again, following 23 years of operating under franchise agreements with other airlines.

The first plane to fly in the Loganair black, red and white colours – a Saab 340B named Spirit of Caithness – is now operating flights around the airline’s extensive network in Scotland. A further 15 aircraft will receive a makeover in the coming weeks.

The airline has teamed up with Paisley-based Matrix Uniforms to produce workwear for more than 300 employees, which includes a distinct tartan look for its 90-strong cabin crew, tartan ties for pilots and a range of red and black outfits including weatherproof garments for some 200 ground staff and engineers.
