6. "Heart and Soul" Boeing 777-300ER | N701MA

New Year, New Us. That's what MidAmerican told the world on January 1st, 2017, when MidAmerican Airlines released its new brand, retiring of its "West Wind" emblem that had been the symbol of the airline since the early 1960s and releasing a new triangle-on-triangle logo, named the Heart and Soul. The three points of the triangle represent the three core tenets of MidAmerican's philosophy: giving our customers the best and most reliable service possible; always focusing on innovation and being the best airline we can be; and representing our employees, company, and country with pride.

On that day, planes were simultaneously unveiled at four of MidAmerican's hubs: Chicago O'Hare, New Orleans, New York JFK and Seattle-Tacoma. Standing in front of an Airbus A330-200 in New Orleans, MidAmerican's Chief Marketing Officer Kelly Wang said that, "Today represents a new chapter in the history for MidAmerican. Our brand has endured as a symbol of comfort, reliability and the magic of flying in America, and we only move forward today."

N701MA was present at the ceremony in Chicago, flown the previous night from Seattle's Paine Field. Departing at 9:30pm on December 31st, the aircraft landed at 3am the next morning under the cover of darkness. After the press day, the aircraft was pressed into service on its first training flight between Chicago and Los Angeles.

N701MA is equipped with 52 World Business Class lie-flat seats, 80 Economy Comfort seats and 217 Economy Class seats.
