A Century Old History of Citroën logo
In 1900, André Citroën successfully utilised a patent for gears in the form of double chevrons, a symbol he then used in 1919, when he began to manufacture cars. Between 1921 and 1936, the oval was replaced by a hexagon on a blue background that highlighted the yellow chevrons, then the name Citroën was introduced. In the early 1930s, a parallel logo appeared, representing a swan sailing in Citroën rafters, to symbolize the new floating engines.
By 1959, yellow chevrons protrude from a white ellipse and then in 1966, the name Citroën is integrated in a blue square. From 1985, to modernize the image of the brand, the rafters are now white and inserted within a red square. In 2009, the brands new logo features chromed and rounded chevrons in 3D, with Citroën inscribed in red underneath. It was refined further in 2016 when a 2D version inspired by a flat design, was unveiled.

Coforge launches Voyager.AI & FlightFlex.AI to boost airline operations
New platforms target real-time personalisation and smoother disruption handling
GREATER NOIDA: Coforge has introduced two AI-native solutions, Voyager.AI and FlightFlex.AI, aimed at helping airlines worldwide enhance customer experience while improving operational efficiency.
The move comes as airlines accelerate investments in modern retailing and digital transformation, where the ability to act on real-time data is fast becoming a key differentiator. Coforge’s new platforms are designed to address both sides of the equation, customer engagement and operational resilience.
Voyager.AI focuses on delivering personalised passenger experiences. By combining booking data, loyalty insights and behavioural signals into a unified real-time traveller profile, the platform enables airlines to create tailored offers and interactions across the customer journey. Using AI-led decisioning and predictive modelling, it shifts airlines away from static segmentation towards dynamic, context-driven engagement.
FlightFlex.AI, meanwhile, targets disruption management, one of the industry’s most persistent challenges. Whether caused by weather, crew constraints or operational bottlenecks, disruptions can quickly escalate across airline networks. The platform brings together AI-driven decision support, automated rebooking and proactive passenger communication to streamline recovery and reduce delays.
Coforge chief officer, strategy and growth Erika Moore said, “With Voyager.AI and FlightFlex.AI we are enabling airlines to make decisions in real-time.” She added that the solutions are built on deep operational expertise and are designed to support airlines as they transition towards more customer-centric, “retail-like” experiences.
The company said both platforms integrate with existing airline systems and are built to scale across multi-hub, multi-fleet and multi-regulatory environments, making them suitable for global carriers.
As airlines look to balance rising passenger expectations with operational pressures, Coforge’s latest offering signals a growing shift towards AI-led decision-making, where every interaction, and every disruption, becomes an opportunity to improve the journey.
