The plane is almost entirely white, with blue "EuroWings" titles on the upper forward fuselage, and the black registration "D-ACNH" next to a small German flag on the lower rear, just forward of the engines mounted on the sides of the rear fuselage. The tail is dark blue, with a series of yellow dots arranged in a 10 * 5 oblong that is angled and appears to be waving. Grey concrete apron fills the foreground, with a white and yellow fuel truck driving from right to left ion the bottom right corner. Green grass lines taxiways and a runway in the background, leading up to trees and some houses in the distance.
