Croatia Airlines

Continental Airlines


With a bit of extra horizontal stretching to align with the original Continental typeface

Cathay Pacific


The small caps feature of Photoshop really doesn't work well with Comic Sans and this treatment really spoils Cathay... Yuck.

Brussels Airlines

British Airways


The nation's favourite airline - now in improved Comic Sans flavour

Alitalia


Would or should the red addition be in this orientation - or would it come vertically from the bottom? Here is an Italian looking take on Comic airlines.

airTran


The stroke weight of the large Comic 'a' is too heavy with a simple scaling, but you get the idea.

Air France


Air France's new look logo doesn't look right in Comic Sans!

Air Berlin

Air Philippines

Air New Zealand


I wonder if Albion London will adopt this comic variant for their new campaigns for Air New Zealand?

AEROMEXICO


Dark blue. Eagle head. Kinda goes with the Comic Brands

AEROFLOT



Taking some liberties with the name and the Russian character forms Comic Sans - but all characters are comic based

AA


The non-symmetrical comic As throw the logo out from the centre

And so to airlines

How would the world's airlines look in Comic Sans? What would our favourite airline be?

Comic Technology Brands Compared

Looking at the previous logos it's easy to spot a few similarities. There's a love of the uppercase, of the bright red and the strong blue. Red seems to be favoured by the Japanese, with Fijitsu, Hitachi, JVC, Ricoh, Sanyo, Sharp and Toshiba.



Blue for a more European or American look, with Nokia, Philips, Motorola. But Epson and Casio demonstrate the Japanese light red too.



In order to find some differentiation, a few technology companies try red with lowercase and usually an added stick on graphic device.
