United Airlines unveils Mountain Ascent special livery on Embraer E175

United Airlines has introduced a new special livery called "Mountain Ascent." The design appears on an Embraer E175 registered N645SY and features stylized valleys, forests, and snowcapped mountain peaks on the rear fuselage. The airline's in-house design team created the livery.

The aircraft is operated by SkyWest Airlines for United Express. The E175 is expected to enter scheduled service with the new livery in early 2027. It will serve destinations such as Aspen, Vail, Crested Butte, and Sun Valley. United says it operates around 60 routes to 15 ski and mountain destinations in the western United States.
