No. I want them to check how the colors display on a wide variety of common devices before making the final design choices. We do this routinely every time we role out a new web page to make sure that we've chosen colors that are less prone to device variation. Sometimes is doesn't matter, sometimes two colors that were meant to be very different display almost identically on some monitors.

According to this, Pacific Blue Airlines was a low cost carrier in NZ, which got renamed to Virgin Australia in 2011.
Now, I swear I had an SN route served by a Pacific Blue 767 for a DKR-BRU segment in 2012, but I just can't find a record of it. I remember looking for it at the time and finding it was a German? charter carrier, like Thomas Cook. I must misremember the name.

As for the tulip - they retired it at merger time because pmUA had such negative connotations. Now the meatball stands for worse and it would be smart to defrost the tulip -- but only to cap a comeback, per above.
