That's a freakin' FANTASTIC tail! Not sold yet on the new logo typeface but I'm sure it will grow on me. It looks a bit Playskool compared to their old logo and the competition.

I see the first revision of the wordmark, the alleged teaser and it's like a smoothed down, trying to please everyone/homely, Sarah Palin conservative, only our name says Alaska. But that's just me.
When I first saw the jagged script way back when, I thought, "Wow, AS has lifted the font style from the Alaska Seafood Marketing Institute." It looked like a carbon copy of theirs.

Not a fan. It's like Interjet and Alaska had a baby. An ugly baby.
The green is unnecessary and I don't understand why they needed three shades of blue.
