Air Africa

Approximate Vintage: 2020
Received From: Janusz Tichoniuk
Print or Image Color: Black
Background / Bag Color: White, Yellow
Janusz Tichoniuk has one of the largest collections of Air Sickness Bags in the world. His collection is larger than the one featured on Airsicknessbags.com. Janusz is also a pilot who printed up his own bags for a service he calls "Air Africa" (not to be confused with the Air Africa of the early 90s that went out of business

This bag says:
Air Africa

Dia chorych w powietrzu
 Po uzyciu torebki nie nalezy jej wyrzucac z samolotu, lecz zamknac i pozostawic w kabinie.

For Air-Sickness
After use not to be thrown out of the aicraft but close the pouch and keep it in the cabin.

I believe this bag is #2 of 100

Air Afrique

Received From: Ralph Riffenburgh

Background / Bag Color: White
First, their logo looks like a mutated cross between the NBA and NHL logos. And the Tribal Birth Mask on the front (or as numismatic nerds would say, obverse) sets up the expectation that your plane will be greeted by half naked dancing natives. This bag should set race relations back about 200 years.

Identical to other Air Afrique Green bag except there is no base to stand on, plus the dashes by the folding instructios are extremely narrow.

Identical to other Air Afrique bag except this one is brown instead of green. The inner fold (not pictured) also has the amazingly ridiculous concatenation "Franpap", which I guess stands for France Paper. Maybe Switzerland has Swipap?

Air Afrique

Background / Bag Color: Tan
Wow the age on this thing is palpable. Probably 1970s but by its size (exceedingly colossal) it is more in line with the late 1960s.

Air Alfa

Approximate Vintage: 2000
Received From: Manfred Kleber
Print or Image Color: Navy and Teal
Background / Bag Color: White
Gotta love the highway cloverleaf logo. The color scheme sounds nice, but falls short.

Air Algerie

Received From: Christoph Vogel
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: Brown
Like some cigarettes purport to be, it's the longest and thinnest. Turn the bag sideways, and the logo looks like an ugly flower. Incomprehensible writing on bottom.

Air Algerie

Approximate Vintage: 1992
Received From: Christoph Vogel
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
Just like the brown bag version, but this one is printed on a white bag.

Air Algerie

Received From: Graham Curran
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
Identical to the 1992 version, except this one is manufactured by Embag, not Emepac (see bag bottom to differentiate).

Air Algerie

Approximate Vintage: 2003
Received From: Bernd Heuer
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
Identical to the 1992 version, except this one is manufactured by Embag, not Emepac (see bag bottom to differentiate -- there's a compass/clock looking device there).

Air Algerie

Approximate Vintage: 2010
Received From: Frank Mulliri
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
They changed their name from white on a red background to red on a white background. Also the EMBAG is now Filiale de GIPAC, whatever that means

Air Andaman

Approximate Vintage: 2003
Received From: Frederik Witte
Print or Image Color: Navy and Blue
Background / Bag Color: Navy and White
The sun in the logo looks a lot like the ATA bag. Air Andaman is a regional airline in Thailand.

Air Aruba

Approximate Vintage: 2001
Received From: Ann Meili
Print or Image Color: Aqua and Blue
Background / Bag Color: White
Avianca-like logo. Interesting euphemism: Discomfort bag.

Air Asia

Approximate Vintage: 2002
Received From: Christian Annyas
Print or Image Color: Navy
Background / Bag Color: White and Navy
While it's got the eagle head of the US Postal Service and the blocky Malaysian bag font, this bag will spare you to death. This is probably the most boring bag there is, given the amount of stuff printed on it.

Air Asia

Approximate Vintage: 2012
Received From: Mike Newman
Print or Image Color: Red
Background / Bag Color: White
A tiny airplane winds its way across the bag because the logo is in its flight path.

Air Asia

Background / Bag Color: White
A tiny airplane winds its way across the bag because the logo is in its flight path.

Identical to the 2012 version except they've added instructions that say: Please tear here to open

Air Asia Zest

Approximate Vintage: 2013
Received From: Janusz Tichoniuk
Print or Image Color: White, Red
Background / Bag Color: Red, White
Without any writing inside the Air Asia Zest logo, the bag would look like a Japanese Flag.

Air Astana

Approximate Vintage: 2005
Received From: Tim Gibson
Print or Image Color: Navy, Gold, Silver
Background / Bag Color: White
I don't know where the heck this bag is from, but the pictographical instructions on the back are darn near useless -- even for those few whose eyes can possibly see the poorly contrasting colors. In fact, the diagrams are so useless that someone who didn't already know what they represented could easily think that only right handed people are allowed to use the bag -- check it out and see.

Air Astana

Approximate Vintage: 2007
Received From: Gerhard Lang
Print or Image Color: Navy, Gold, Silver
Background / Bag Color: White
Air Astana downsizes the logo and loses the instruction, offering this more tasteful, but also more boring version.

Air Astana

Approximate Vintage: 2014
Received From: Janusz Tichoniuk
Print or Image Color: Navy, Gold, Silver
Background / Bag Color: White
Identical to the 2007 version except that the closing mechanism has changed from twist tie / wings, to fold over.
