The first Aeroméxico's Quetzalcóatl 787-9 Dreamliner took off at 11:00 am from Seattle and will land at 3:30 pm at Mexico City International Airport.
The airline held a contest called “The Design is Up in the Air” to create the livery representing Mexico anywhere in the world, which received 400 designs and was won by José Manuel Escudero, graphic designer.
The icons that Escudero chose to represent Mexico are: Quetzalcóatl, an eagle, a monkey, Xoloescuincle, an ear of corn, a toad, a deer, an armadillo, a flower, a butterfly, a spider, nopales, axolotl, a rabbit, a turtle, a jaguar, a hummingbird, a bee, a heron, a wolf and a quetzal.
According to the airline, Escudero, from the state of Veracruz, was always immersed in Mesoamerican cultures, as his father used to take him and his sister to archaeological sites as children.
It took him four days to research and design the final livery.
