flag carrier Logos and Brands
National airlines that have historically represented their countries on international routes are listed in the “Flag Carrier” section. British Airways, Lufthansa, Air France, Japan Airlines, Singapore Airlines, and dozens of other carriers bear symbols of national affiliation in their names or logos. Flag carrier logos may include national ornaments, heraldic animals, elements of national flags, or stylized images associated with the country’s culture. The JAL crane, the Turkish Airlines star and crescent, and the Caribbean Airlines hummingbird are visual symbols through which airlines convey their country’s image to passengers around the world.
