Alaska Airlines reveals new Pride-themed livery

Alaska Airlines debuted its Pride plane on Tuesday, truly nailing its colors to the mast -- or decals to the fuselage. The Airbus A320's new livery has "Fly with Pride" written on the side and the design features brightly colored silhouettes of planes and stripes on the main body and engines. The design choice, says Alaska Airlines on Twitter, is "iconic rainbow stripes & inclusive colors such as brown, black, light blue, white & pink to represent BIPOC & Transgender communities. Without those groups of people & their activism, we would not have Pride today." Accompanying "Fly with Pride" pins are available for $4 on the company's online store. The airline is also celebrating via its in-flight entertainment, with its Pride Month movie and TV selection including classics such as "Milk" and "Cabaret" and series "Pose" and "Little Fires Everywhere." The airline tells CNN Travel that it began the design process for the plane back in April, and it will be flying with their network for a whole year -- not just Pride Month. "To the best of our knowledge, this is the first time a US airline has introduced a Pride-inspired plane," says the Alaska Airlines spokesperson.<br/>
