They're not just wanting a new paint job. The idea is to replace the current plane with a new 747-8. Besides my comparison to the new paint job resembling the old American Airlines livery, someone else noted that it resembles one of his planes.

The current Boeing 747s have been in use for nearly three decades. The 4,000 sq/ft (1,220 sq/m) aircraft features three floors, armoured windows, medical offices and a kitchen that can feed 100 people at a time.
