Refreshed Livery?
B-KQF has returned from XMN and is flying to CTS today, but it hasn't just returned from maintenance, but it appears to have come back with a new refreshed livery too, with much larger text towards the front of the fuselage. Does anyone know anything about this change, and if it is coming to the entire fleet?

I am hoping that Cathay gets a new Spirit of HK livery on an A350 (hopefully similar to the older versions of the Spirit of HK livery) but considering how boring and stingy Cathay has been with their special liveries recently (no Asia World City Livery, terrible Spirit of HK livery on HNK, no World Trader livery on the 747, or any sort of special livery really) I don't have much hope. It would be cool to see a retro livery as well, but that is not going to happen considering they only finished repainting their aircraft recently into the new livery, but that's something I would love to see in 5-10 years.

Well, the planes which are most likely getting the new titles are ones which would probably have had to be repainted anyways when going for a D-check (deep maintenance), so it wouldn't really make a financial difference I'm guessing. It certainly looks better and makes it clearer for people to recognise the brand.
