The background image presents the Empire State Building in a really cool "forced-perspective" manner.
After Bombardier successfully completed its landmark transatlantic proving flight with the Bombardier CS100, Alpha Airways's founder seized the opportunity to start up a new premier airline that would specifically cater to business and upper leisure travelers. Thereafter, the all-business class airline was launched in August 2019 with its inaugural flight between New York's John F. Kennedy Airport to London City Airport; Alpha Airways now operates out of Los Angeles, New York City, and San Francisco with a fleet of only Airbus A220-100 aircraft. As the demand for premium travel continues to increase, the airline hopes to open an additional base serving Washington, D.C. by the end of 2020 and expand its European coverage to cities including Brussels, Dublin, and Lisbon.
Alpha Airways has been a proud member of the Dynasty World Alliance since 2019.
But if I could, I would operate between LaGuardia and London City
and dca to lcy too
This is beautiful. Absolutely fantastic.
Quick question though, where does Alpha fly to from LA and San Francisco? The magazine (which is excellently designed by the way) says Honolulu which I guess is served from that coast but it seems like more of leisure destination than somewhere a business-centered airline would fly?
clean as hell
I love this.
Yeah, you probably read that before I edited the descriptionQuick question though, where does Alpha fly to from LA and San Francisco?

The airline is intended to cater to business and upper/premium class leisure travelers. For some reason I couldn't think of the name of them at the time.
And because I know that there's always a fair bit of domestic-Pacific traffic from California, LA and San Francisco serve as feeders to Hawaiian destinations from the east whilst being a main transcon destination themselves.
This is very nice.

Honolulu does a fair bit in business travel, it's only stereotypically 'Tourist.'
I partially agree with edge, the current design looks like it works for the earlier 2000s, but could use a rebrand around the CS100 era. Though to be honest, US liveries tend to look old and stick around for a while ... so it's not a big deal and it is a nice livery.
The airline's history could probably be pulled back a bit with A318s serving as the starting aircraft, maybe? Then the CSeries is introduced into service either with a simultaneous rebrand or one later.
My friendly suggestion/input :
I'd say I think the logo on its own is lovely but livery falls off hard.
