The livery carries a distinctive cartoon insect at the front of the aircraft, and is meant to represent the ‘fly’ part of the catchphrase fly Niki. The airline has been owned by Air Berlin since 8 Novembre 2011 et a 650 people working for them of which around 90% are employed through Labourpool Gmbh, a personnel leasing company. Staff turnover is generally high due to this structure being used as employees do not generally enjoy any protection and can be dismissed with a 6 week notice period. It also protects the airline against disgruntled ex-employees as they cannot sue against the airline as they are technically employees of Labourpool. The personnel manager of Niki also acts for Labourpool.
