Southwest Airlines has decided to make some changes to its special liveries as older Boeing 737-700s are being phased out or repainted.
The two Boeing 737-700 retro jets in the “Desert Gold” livery (N711HK and N714CB) will be replaced with a single Boeing 737-8 MAX 8 (N871HK) and will also serve as a dedication to founder Herbert D. Kelleher.
N711HK is operating its last scheduled revenue flight today.
N714CB will operate its last revenue flight on May 15.
The Colleen Barrett Boeing 737-700 (N266WN) will be replaced with a single Boeing 737-8 MAX 8 (N872CB).
Illinois One (above) and Tennessee One (below) special liveries will be returning on Boeing 737-800s.
