5 plane interiors to make your eyes pop Posted on 28 January 2019 Tags:aeroplane, Air Travel, airplane, flying, plane Here in South Africa, we have the bright orange Mango planes and quirky green Kulua aircraft to brighten up our skies, but when it comes to the interior of these planes the design could have been a little more imaginative. Whether it’s to your taste or not, here are five airlines with more interior decorating flair than our local airlines. 1. Hello Kitty, Eva Air View this post on Instagram A post shared by EVA Airways North America (@evaairus) on Mar 18, 2018 at 8:05am PDT Eva Air’s Hello Kitty planes are decorated from head to toe with the much-loved cartoon character’s image. The popular Taiwanese carrier’s themed planes are painted with Hello Kitty characters on the outside, while the cabin features Hello Kitty branded pillows, serviettes. Hello Kitty-shaped food is also served on board for a fully immersive experience.

Peach Aviation When you match the livery and interior so well that the crew want to take a selfie with you… #thatjohnpeach pic.twitter.com/0sLZbxPDah — John Walton 🏳️🌈 ✈️ 💺 (@thatjohn) December 7, 2018 View this post on Instagram A post shared by ゆいま〜る🤗 (@yuima_ru3_) on Jun 7, 2018 at 2:42pm PDT Peach Airlines’ planes are brightly coloured inside and out, with a coat of bright pink and purple paint on the exterior and purple seats on the inside.

Watch as the colours change and dance across the cabin ceiling, creating a relaxing atmosphere. 4. Star Wars, ANA View this post on Instagram A post shared by Sam Chui (@samchui) on Aug 19, 2018 at 7:36am PDT Whoever came up with the idea of branding an aircraft with a Star Wars theme was a genius. ANA has several planes covered with different Star Wars symbols and the insides of its headrests are themed as well. Trekkies may be jealous, as to the best of our knowledge, there are no Star Trek-themed planes. View this post on Instagram This is the aircraft of Star Wars. The theme of Star Wars is the in-flight BGM #starwars #anastarwars A post shared by SORRISO (@nicokamekichi) on Jan 17, 2019 at 3:02pm PST 5.
