New Checkin Signage
I noticed this week new checkin signage in use both at HKG and TPE. It matches the new branding and looks stylish but the font is very small and for me at least basically illegible other than at close quarters. At TPE the overhead monitors had been similarly reconfigured. It looks like a triumph of form over function, and I had to get close and peer carefully to see which queue was which.

It's because the oneworld "Priority" scheme is being rolled out across the alliance and includes new signage at check in/security/gates/lounges.
I am currently trying to find and post the images of these signs placed in OW hubs/outstations to this thread. http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/onewo...ck-thread.html

NRT was the first port I believe to roll out the new signage on May 20. Plenty of photos at :

I think they look really nice. As a designer, I always thought the old signs looked really dated and clumsy.
I just wish they'd do something about their priority tags, the current style looks so messy.
