China Eastern Airlines has unveiled a new logo, its first change in over 30 years.
The new design retains the distinctive swallow image as well as the red and blue colours on the carrier’s original logo.

Oh hmmm.... very reminiscent of Malaysia's former logo.

I would rather their previous livery over that! That is beyond dull!

dont airlines like colour on their aircrafts any more. another one turning predominantly
white

[Erik H. Bakke]

Cheaper to paint that way.
And also, presumably requiring fewer coats of paint, thus reducing the weight of the aircraft by a small value, in turn causing reduced fuel burn.

Every little bit helps in today's industry.

If that's the case what's ANZ's angle? ;p

[Erik H. Bakke]

I'd say "Showoff" :D
