Riyadh Air presented on Sunday how it will be one of two liveries to be used on its planes.. The new carrier from Saudi Arabia published a video and photos of a Boeing 787-9 already with the paint applied in the United States.

With the ambition to rival airlines such as Emirates, Etihad and Qatar, Riyadh Air already differentiates itself by painting it all in dark blue, with the tail in a lighter shade of blue and a graphic on the back of the fuselage.

It is not yet clear whether this scheme will be special or the standard applied to the jets that will be operated by the airline founded by the Saudi government.
