Air Seychelles, the national carrier, recently went through a corporate rebranding exercise to update and refresh its logo. The new graphic design still reflects nature with its organic shape that evokes a leaf. The soft pastel colours blend with the company tagline of "Flying the Creole Spirit" and give a sense of elegance and joie-de-vivre.
The pair of Fairy Terns, that have been a part of the Air Seychelles logo for many years, have been retained and softened into a more abstract and flowing silhouette. Fairy Terns pair for life, and are a symbol of beauty, elegance, nature and flight, and also loyalty, unity and freedom.
Following a soft launch for the Air Seychelles staff members at the Anse Royale Campus of the Seychelles University , the rebranding concept was unveiled to trade partners at the Paris Tourist Fair, Top Resa in September 2011.
