Wizz Air Airbus A320 in all its pink and purple glory!
Do you like purple? Do you like purple more when it is with pink? Well then Wizz Air is the airline for you (their website gives me a headache). Wizz Air was founded in September 2003 and had its first flight took off in May 2004. It is based out of Hungary and has over 150 different routes in Europe, all serviced by their 26 Airbus A320’s. Their goal is to have 132 aircraft by 2017, which is a very aggressive goal.
They aren’t too concerned about customer service, where they state it takes more than 30 days to process customer complaints and it costs about $1.00 USD per minute to call customer service. But all of this doesn’t matter if you care about getting to your destination on the same airline Barbie would be proud to fly!

Blue Panorama Boeing 757-231
Blue Panorama Airlines sparked my interest this week for the livery blog, not only because of its unique name, but also its unique livery on the nose of their aircraft.
The airline was started in 1998 and is based in Rome, Italy. The airline has a fleet of 10 aircraft, including Boeing 737’s, 757’s, and 767’s. They also have one very cool looking Piaggio P-180 for short-haul flights.
