AkzoNobel and Alaska Airlines Unite for Disney-Themed Livery
AkzoNobel and Alaska Airlines Collaborate
AkzoNobel Aerospace Coatings has teamed up with IAC Spokane to unveil an exciting Disney-themed aircraft livery for Alaska Airlines. This aircraft, named Tiana's Bayou Adventure Flyer, is inspired by the beloved Disney film The Princess and the Frog. The special livery was showcased at a major airport, igniting enthusiasm among aviation and Disney fans alike.
Bringing Disney Magic to Aviation
The striking design incorporates AkzoNobel's Aerodur basecoat/clearcoat (BCCC) system, showcasing a palette of 19 unique colors. This system not only enhances the visual appeal of the aircraft but also provides durable protection, ensuring the livery withstands diverse flying conditions. Alaska Airlines, known for its commitment to quality, has embraced this creative partnership to enhance its brand identity and engage passengers.
Meticulous Craftsmanship on Display
The execution of this project was no small feat. Over a period of 24 days, IAC’s skilled team dedicated more than 2,000 hours to meticulously paint the aircraft. The design captures whimsical elements reflecting the adventurous spirit of the film. Key characters like Princess Tiana and Louis the Alligator vividly come to life along the fuselage, alongside other enchanting details like glowing fireflies. This intricate representation not only celebrates the film but also Alaska Airlines’ ongoing dedication to creating unforgettable experiences for travelers.
