Side view of a twin engined jet airliner flying from left to right at low altitude with flaps and landing gear deployed, and nose raised slightly. The plane's body is split into 2 parts, the forward and upper fuselage is white, the rear and lower fuselage is grey, seperated by a red line that starts under the belly and sweeps up and to the rear, into the tail. The tail is mostly red, with the image of a white bird in flight, the same logo is repeated in red on the grey engine cowlings. There are 2 sets of titles on the forward fuselage, "airarabia.com" in English above the forward cabin windows, and in an Arabic script below them. Above, the sky is a gorgeoous blue with hints of white fluff, while the plane has a slight golden cast from the slowly setting sun.
