While the Aegean Airlines logo does not feature a plane or another manmade flying object, the “flying” and “sky” themes are very obvious here, as well as the marine theme. You can see two birds (apparently, seagulls), one above the other. In the background, there is a large arch (or an open circle). It symbolizes the rising or setting sun with its lowest part covered by the sea.
The marine theme, which has been inspired by the name of the airlines, appears in the logo due to seagulls and the deep blue color. The blue was also used as the color of the flag of Greece.
