Boomerang Bros. International Airlines



Boomerang Bros. International Airlines (Often abbreviated to BBIA) is an airline that appears as a sponsor in Mario Kart 8 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. It runs flights to some of the courses from the game, so presumably transports the racers to these locations for the races. It appears to be run by Boomerang Bros. The logo consists of the name or initials in a navy blue sans-serif font, with the first "I" in "International" being replaced with a red-striped blue Boomerang. It is advertised by means of posters and trackside banners, appears on planes and departures boards, and is referenced on a map.

Boomerang Bros. is directly advertised in Sunshine Airport with posters and trackside banners, but additionally some of its planes can be seen around the airport, and also appears as one of the flight providers on the departures board. The announcer on the intercom also mentions a flight provided by Boomerang Bros. International Airlines, "This is the final boarding call for Boomerang Bros. International Airlines, Flight 117a to Sweet Sweet Canyon, departing from Gate 3", however this is inconsistent with the departures boards around the airport, which list the same flight as being number 4300. Signs for it appear in N64 Toad's Turnpike, as well as it having its own buses. Trackside banners advertising Boomerang Bros. International Airlines also appear in GCN Yoshi Circuit, while it is referenced on the local information map in Super Bell Subway in section A, and appears in square B4 as listed, but also appears in squares B3 and C3.

Boomerang Bros. International Airlines is also the main sponsor advertised on the blue varnish of the Circuit Special, where the logo appears three times, one on either side and also one on the rear wing. A different monochrome version of the logo can also be seen at the end of the credits, with various other logos.
