American Airlines CEO Tom Horton announced AA's new branding going forward at 10 AM Eastern time 17 Jan 2013. His address about the new branding and 77W color scheme rollout can be seen here. N.B.

My first thought was it looks like Air France.

I didn't follow my own advice... "Low expectations, high satisfaction. High expectations, low satisfaction. " Unfortunately, I had high expectations.

Um...yeah...at least it's still a silver plane! Not a fan of the tail, but do like the larger American wording down the side.

I'm not a fan of the logo. That's suppose to be an eagle? I'm OK with the tail and the color but I think they phoned this one in, big surprise. Oh well.

It will take some getting used to, yes, but I actually don't hate it.

I do like the new AAdvantage cards:


And apparently the personalized luggage tags are coming back :
