American Airlines' Radical New Look


The iconic "AA" is gone and will now be replaced by a design paradox that is most puzzling.  Companies build a brand around a logo.  Think of GE, McDonald and Coca Cola.  While airlines do tweak and update their look, doing away entirely with the recognized symbol of American Airlines is a shame.  There is something special and timeless about that logo, recognized worldwide for decades.    The new look resembles the old Air France logo but in horizontal hodge-podge of stripes instead the verticals that Air France discarded many years ago.www.premieretravel.com
