Kenya Airways (peach)An "airsicknessbag" (in small type at the bottom). Looks like Kenya Airways' typography department ran out of spaces. There's a star logo (the bag maker's?) at the bottom left: the same logo appears in the side fold of the Eurowings bag. (1997) |

Kenya Airways (red)"For a clean feeling" proclaims this bag in 36-point type. Fantastic! Let's all fly to Nairobi for a bath in a bag! Thanks to Hans Timmer. (2001) |

Kenya Airways (white)Kenya Airways have gone from flat-bottomed to pointy-bottomed, and now make liberal use of spaces between the words, too: it's now "Air Sickness Bag". Could someone on the KQ design staff have seen my comments about the bag above? This bag probably came from the ill-fated plane that crashed at Abidjan in early 2000. I took the same flight from Nairobi to Abidjan three days before the crash... (2000) |

Kenya Airways (white, bold)Proof that it's worth sifting through your extra bags every now and then (something I do whenever I have a spare moment). You might just notice a gem among the rejects. I was riffling through my swap box when I noticed this bag: a subtle variation on the one above. Same words, same design, but a bolder typeface. (2001) |

Kenya Airways (vertical crimping)No thumbhole, same design... but the crimping at the base is vertical rather than horizontal. Picky, picky... Thanks to Evelyn Mathias. (2002) |

Kenya Airways (thumbhole)Like the bag above, but with a thumbhole for easy
opening in an emergency. |

Kenya Airways (flat base)Now they've gone back to block-bottom bags again. Confusing for passengers, but a delight for bagophiles. Thanks to Ilse Köhler-Rollefson. (2003) |

Kenya Airways (KQ)Everyone (in Kenya, at least) calls Kenya Airways after its callsign, KQ. Its designer has given in to popular pressure and has given the logo a makeover to reflect this. Stole this one myself. (2005) |
