airBaltic is getting ready to celebrate the delivery of its 50th Airbus A220-300, and to mark the occasion it wants to apply a special livery design to the aircraft.
Well known for its special liveries marking other milestones, as well as the flags of the Baltic countries (Estonia, Lithuania and Latvia), airBaltic wants to mark its 50th aircraft which will be delivered later in 2024.
Martin Gauss, CEO and President of airBaltic, said: “The on-growing fleet of our Airbus A220-300 aircraft is distinctly recognized by its green tails, a signature feature of airBaltic. Celebrating significant achievements and meaningful events with unique liveries is a long-standing tradition in aviation, as seen already on four of our aircraft, in colors of the Baltic nations’ flags. As we aim towards a 100-aircraft fleet by 2030, we eagerly anticipate the arrival of our 50th aircraft at the end of 2024. To mark this milestone, we are excited to offer a unique and historical opportunity to contribute in the creation of the livery for this special aircraft. Perhaps, exactly your design will be carried by one of our aircraft within the wide airBaltic network.”

The contest will follow a structured process: Initially, the airBaltic Design Committee, which includes professionals from various departments, such as Top Management, PR, Marketing, and Content, will evaluate all entries based on adherence to the contest guidelines. Out of these submissions, the top 15-20 designs will be shortlisted.
Afterwards, the designs will be displayed on a special webpage dedicated to public voting. This phase is exclusively accessible to airBaltic Club members offering our most loyal customers the unique opportunity to influence airBaltic’s history in choosing the livery. Each member entitled to cast one vote.
What’s the Prize?
As well as having your winning design applied to the A220 aircraft and flown around for many years for all to see (imagine how many pictures of your design will adorn the internet!), the winner will also receive a EUR 3,000 gift certificate to use on airBaltic flights.
Those involved in the voting (members of the airBaltic Club) will also be able to enter a raffle for a chance to fly on the aircraft after delivery.
