Sport colours airliners

Between late 2025 and early 2026, two airlines decorated their aircraft with spectacular special colours for major sporting events. Royal Air Maroc, the main partner of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation, painted the African Cup on the all-red Boeing 737 MAX CN-MAX and portraits of all the players from the Moroccan national team for the 2025 African Cup of Nations on the Boeing 737 MAX CN-MAY. The definitive winner of the tournament, held from December 21, 2025 to January 18, 2026, is currently in dispute.

For the 2026 Six Nations Rugby Tournament, Spain's Vueling Airlines applied special colours to the Airbus A 320 used for the French team's international travels. The fuselage features the amusing question "Who said the rooster can't fly?", referring to the French national rugby team logo.
